Should Massachusetts make it legal for establishments to sell alcohol two hours earlier than the current law allows, starting at 8 a.m. on Sundays?
Choices
Poll Description

A Massachusetts representative is pushing to repeal a colonial-era law that forbids the sale of alcoholic beverages before 10 a.m. on Sundays. 

Alcohol can be sold in both stores and restaurants starting at 8 a.m. Mondays through Saturdays, with the Sunday restriction stemming in part from a very old Puritan law meant to uphold morality and religion. 

Rep. Adam Scanlon (D-Bristol) filed a bill, A Beautiful Brunch Act, on July 30 that would allow for the sale of alcohol starting at 8 a.m. on Sundays. About a month later, on Aug. 25, the House referred the bill to the Joint Committee on Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure.
