Bill Summary

Relative to the sale of alcohol on Sundays. Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure.

AI Summary

This bill, concerning the sale of alcohol on Sundays, proposes to amend Section 33 of Chapter 138 of the General Laws, which is a state law governing alcoholic beverages. Specifically, it will allow licensees, which are businesses or individuals holding a license to sell alcohol, under a new section 19D, in addition to those already under section 19C, to sell alcohol on Sundays. This change expands the types of alcohol retailers permitted to operate on Sundays, potentially increasing consumer access to alcoholic beverages on that day.
