Report on the upcoming Supreme Court consideration of Swedenburg v. Kelly. The central issue in the case is the end of the state law bans on direct shipment of wines to end-user consumers, a crucial issue for home entertaining enthusiasts, like the Society of Recovering Sorority Girls

WASHINGTON, DC (PRWEB) October 25, 2004 -- The Society of Recovering Sorority Girls, through its founders Kristina Morgan" Rose and Deandra Brooksie" Brooks, urge the United States Supreme Court to end the prohibition of interstate shipments of wine direct to consumers when the high court considers "Swedenburg v. Kelly" later this session.

How many times have you gone a vacation to California wine country and really connected with a vineyard only to discover that you cant have the wine shipped directly to your home?" asked Brooksie. I am thankful that I live in Virginia where I can receive shipments of wine from California, but I am deeply saddened that I cannot also get shipments of the great Ohio wines that Morgan and discovered during last falls wine adventure."

The most distressing aspect of my recent move to Maryland was having to cancel my wine clubs because of Marylands aggressive anti-shipping laws" sniffed Morgan.

Twenty-five states prohibit interstate shipments of wine direct to consumers. On December 7th the United States Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in this important matter (Currently styled as Swedenburg v. Kelly) and consider the critical Constitutional law question of whether a states regulatory powers should enable in-state wine sellers to ship alcoholic beverages direct to consumers while limiting access by out-of-state sellers.

Access to the wine of your choice is obviously a crucial matter for Americans home entertainers and recovering sorority girls everywhere," explained Morgan.

Thats why we felt we had to add our voices to the debate and urge the Supremes to free the grapes" pleaded Brooksie. Like lead attorney Clint Bolick, said recently, 'the 21st Amendment doesnt empower states to squelch free trade in the interest of economic protectionism."

I refuse to believe that the Founding Fathers intended States to have the power to deny any American access to the full spectrum of really yummy American-made wines," Morgan declared.

Morgan and Brooksie are deeply hopeful that the Supreme Courts decision will allow for direct shipments of wine to consumers. Continue to monitor their website at www.recoveringsororitygirls.com for updates on the fight to Free the Grapes."
