Holiday liquor laws draw fire from Kansas store owners
Kansas liquor stores face a 1949 law barring alcohol sales on Fourth of July and other holidays while grocery stores may sell cereal malt beverage. Owners argue the rule unfairly limits weekend holiday sales, urging repeal or revision so retailers choose. Some store managers plan extra stocking, others accept the day off, citing patriotic duties or routine sales patterns.
