==Modern Law==
The majority of blue laws have been repealed by civil governments, mainly so that economic activity can purportedly increase.
Some blue laws still remain active, mainly related to alcoholic beverage sales. For example, in [[Texas]], beer and wine cannot be sold before 10AM, and liquor sales are prohibited. (Texas also has a blue law pertaining to automobile sales: dealers can open on either Saturday or Sunday, but not both. The majority of dealers close on Sundays.)
