WASHINGTON — Mothers Against Drunk Driving wants stricter guidelines for all alcohol ads aired on network television.

The Dallas-based public advocacy group plans to announce a new proposal for all alcohol ads at a news conference in Washington on Thursday. Among some of its recommendations include tougher standards for beer and wine ads aired on networks, and the need for health and safety messages to counter brand-specific spots. The group will also call on Congress to hold immediate hearings on the issue of alcohol advertising.
