AI Summary

This bill would allow holders of a package retailer's permit (i.e., liquor stores) to also become lottery retailers and sell lottery tickets in accordance with Mississippi's lottery law. The bill amends the state's alcoholic beverage control law to explicitly authorize package retailers to sell lottery tickets if they are also registered as lottery retailers under the state's lottery law. This would expand the locations where lottery tickets can be purchased in Mississippi.
