Kansas lawmakers have introduced a bill that would legalize the home delivery of liquor and malt beverages, at the request of Walmart. The Senate Committee on Federal and State Affairs introduced Senate Bill 253 to legalize the home delivery of alcohol. The bill would authorize the home delivery of alcohol by licensed retailers, licensed clubs, drinking establishments, restaurants and third-party delivery services such as Doordash or Eatstreet.
There are restriction, of course. In order to verify that the resident the booze is delivered to is of legal age, the bill requires those who do deliver liquor to carry “identification scanning” software technology. The bill would also require delivery drivers to be trained and certified to deliver alcoholic beverages and bar the delivery of alcoholic beverages to many places including schools churches, daycares and a variety of other places.
