The Alabama House passed a bill Wednesday that clears the way for city councils in 14 Alabama cities to call referendums on legalizing Sunday liquor sales.
The bill passed the House 59-28 after a lengthy debate where some members said allowing the sale of alcoholic beverages on Sundays would increase the number of tourists coming to the cities, while others said alcoholism is a major problem and people need a day off from alcohol sales.
The bill now goes to the Senate for debate.
The 14 cities affected by the proposed legislation are Gadsden, Tuscaloosa, Anniston, Athens, Alexander City, Decatur, Dothan, Enterprise, Florence, Talladega, Ozark, Selma, Sheffield and Sylacauga.
"This bill allows the local governing body to decide what's best for their community," said Rep. Craig Ford, D-Gadsden, sponsor of the bill.

"while others said alcoholism is a major problem and people need a day off from alcohol sales."
I love that; do they really believe alcoholics are too stupid to plan ahead for 1 day?.....and if they are, that it will make a difference?

More likely the bootleg sellers will fund some of the churches to fight it.
