MARTINSBURG, W.Va. — The West Virginia House of Delegates voted 86-12 to pass legislation Tuesday night that would allow Sunday retail sales of liquor in in the state, excluding Christmas Day and Easter Sunday.
If House Bill 2481 becomes law, Sunday retail sales of liquor would be allowed beginning at 1 p.m., but the current prohibition of retail sales on Christmas Day would remain in effect.
In passing the bill on Tuesday, the House of Delegates accepted a Senate amendment to the house bill to prohibit Easter Sunday sales.
Barring a veto of the bill by the governor, West Virginia stands to join 42 other states that have adopted Sunday alcohol sales legislation, including 20 that have passed laws since 2002, the Distilled Spirits Council announced last week in its 2018 economic-briefing presentation in New York.
