Want a bloody Mary with your Sunday brunch before 12:30 p.m?

Rep. Brett Harrell, R-Snellville, has a bill for you.

House Bill 535 would allow local governments where Sunday sales are already legal to authorize the sale of alcohol at 10:30 a.m. on Sundays. Current law says no booze can be sold anywhere before 12:30 p.m.

The bill would only apply to on-premise consumption, meaning drinks bought in restaurants to consume there. It would not apply to the sale of alcohol in stores.
