Sunday Alcohol Sales Debate To Begin This Week
(Indianapolis, IN) – State lawmakers will start debating this week whether or not to allow Sunday alcohol sales in Indiana.
Beverage retailer Ray Cox says he doesn’t want the liquor law to change because smaller stores like his would eventually be driven out of business by the bigger chains.

Cox says the smaller stores would have to pay employees to stay open on Sundays to compete with the grocery stores and convenience stores that are already open, and that would increase their costs.
The Hoosier state is the only state that prohibits carry-out sales on Sunday. A hearing on the liquor law is scheduled to begin at the Statehouse on Wednesday.
