Bill Summary
An Act To Amend Section 67-1-83, Mississippi Code Of 1972, To Allow Any County, Municipality, Tribe, Or Agency Of The State That Is Wet Under The Local Option Alcoholic Beverage Control Law To Authorize Permitted Package Retailers To Engage In Package Retail Sales During Certain Hours On Sunday; And For Related Purposes.
AI Summary
This bill allows local governing authorities in Mississippi, specifically counties, municipalities, tribes, or state agencies that are considered "wet" under the state's alcohol laws (meaning they permit the sale of alcohol), to authorize package retailers to sell alcoholic beverages on Sundays between 1:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m., provided these retailers choose to operate during those hours. The bill amends existing law that currently prohibits Sunday sales of alcoholic beverages by package retailers, with the exception of specific holidays, and clarifies that retailers are not obligated to sell on Sundays.
