Chick-fil-A open on Sunday? Some New York locations would have to if this bill passes - WKMG News 6 & ClickOrlando

Ever been out and about in the morning and thought to yourself “I could go for a Chick-fil-A chicken biscuit,” only to groan when you remember it’s Sunday?

If a bill becomes law this may no longer be a problem in New York — at least for some locations.

The new bill would require any food service businesses with locations at government-run rest stops and welcome centers must be open seven days a week.

The bill specifically mentions Chick-fil-A, which is among the companies that are part of an agreement between food service contractor Applegreen and the New York State Thruway Authority.

Chick-fil-A has already opened locations in seven service areas along I-90, and none of them are open on Sunday. If the new bill becomes law, all future contracts for food concessions would have to be open all week.

“While there is nothing objectionable about a fast food restaurant closing on a particular day of the week, service areas dedicated to travelers is an inappropriate location for such a restaurant,” says the justification memo for the bill in the New York State Assembly. “Publicly owned service areas should use their space to maximally benefit the public. Allowing for retail space to go unused one-seventh of the week or more is a disservice and unnecessary inconvenience to travelers who rely on these service areas.”

Chick-fil-A has famously been closed on Sundays since the first location opened in Georgia in 1946.

No word on what Chick-fil-A would do if this bill were to pass.
