It’ll soon be legal in several Kansas cities in the metro area to purchase alcohol from a liquor store on Sunday mornings — something long prohibited in a state with some of the strictest alcohol laws. In May, Gov. Laura Kelly signed a bill allowing the sale of beer and alcohol to begin at 9 a.m. on Sundays. Before, Kansas law prohibited Sunday sales until noon — a remaining vestige of Kansas’ alcohol regulations dating back to the 1880s, when it became the first state in the country to write prohibition into its constitution. The law requires that cities and counties modify their existing ordinances to authorize the Sunday morning sales, if they wish.
