A bill aiming to extend the sales hours of alcohol in seven California cities starting in 2021 has passed the State Senate but has yet to make it through the California Assembly.

SB 905 proposes a 5-year pilot plan that allows bars and clubs in several cities, including Los Angeles, Long Beach, West Hollywood, Palm Springs, Oakland, Sacramento and San Francisco, to extend the hours of selling alcohol from 2 a.m. to 4 a.m.
