Sunday Law News: 2018
No Sunday Shopping at the American Dream Mega Mall, Whenever it Opens (December 2018)
Blue Laws will keep closed retailers at the gigantic mall taking shape in the Meadowlands. But that doesn't mean the entire complex will be closed on Sundays. Nearly half of American Dream will be comprised of entertainment -- roller coasters, a ski slope, restaurants and more. Those elements of the development are not impacted by the Bergen County laws that forbid buying non-essential items on Sundays.

North Dakota lawmakers to mull Sunday shopping ban repeal (December 2018)
Two Fargo lawmakers say the time is ripe to repeal Sunday business restrictions in North Dakota that have been in place since statehood and rooted in religious tradition. Democratic Rep. Pam Anderson and Republican Rep. Shannon Roers Jones are sponsoring nearly identical legislation aimed at stripping the nation’s strictest so-called blue laws from the books. “The time has come,” said Anderson, whose bipartisan measure was defeated by a handful of votes in the Senate last year. Three of the Republican senators who voted against the repeal are no longer in the Legislature. “We were close last time and I think a couple of others, we can flip,” Roers Jones said. Her father, Fargo GOP Sen. Jim Roers, voted against the repeal last time and is expected to do the same this session, she said. “We argue about it all the time,” she said.

New Italian Government Plans to Curb Sunday Shopping (September 2018)
The new Italian government will introduce a ban on Sunday shopping in large commercial centers before the end of the year as it seeks to defend family traditions, Deputy Prime Minister Luigi Di Maio said on Sunday.In a bid to spur economic growth, the then Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti liberalized Sunday trading in 2012, despite pressure from the Roman Catholic Church and unions who said the country needed to keep its traditional day of rest. "This liberalization is in fact destroying Italian families," said Di Maio, who is head of the anti-establishment 5-Star Movement. "We need to start limiting opening and closing times again," he told reporters.Earlier this year, Poland restricted Sunday shopping as the conservative government in Warsaw pushed ahead with what it said was a return to Roman Catholic values.

Why Sunday Is the Most Important Day of the Week for Your Well being (June 2018)
"Your business will benefit when you prioritize time for yourself and the important people in your life ... Former emergency-room physician and author Matthew Sleeth explained the importance of taking a day of rest in a recent interview with CNN. 'For almost 2,000 years,' Sleeth said, 'Western culture stopped -- primarily on Sunday -- for about 24 hours ... Sunday is prime social time ... Sunday is the perfect day for self care ... Sunday gives you a jump on planning ... Reclaim Sunday as a day of rest in your 24/7 world."
Can you see how Satan is pushing the Sunday issue today? It's not just a 'religious' issue anymore. It's also being pushed now as a social issue, and one that will affect society as a whole, whether it's business, religion, family, or nature. And this issue has gathered more momentum since the pope's encyclical on the climate. Showing that the world is truly 'wondering after the beast' (Rev.13).

Taking Sunday Seriously — Poland Leads the Way (April 2018)
The European nation’s new law sharply restricting Sunday shopping provides an opportunity to take a closer look at American habits. "Sunday has just become a little less busy in Poland, thanks to a new law banning most commercial shopping that took effect in March. And Poland's move, which bucks the prevailing trend in secularized countries toward an ever-more commercialized Sunday, could provide a constructive example for the United States, where the network of state 'blue laws' that once restricted Sunday business activities has been substantially reduced."Poland leading the way and providing an example to America? We know what that means right? Sunday laws are coming!

Author, Economist and Religious Scholar, Dr.David Smadja calls for an INTERNATIONAL WEEKLY DAY OF REST to Combat 'climate change' (January 2018)
"Dr. Smadja's daring plan calls for an international day of rest (about 53 days per year) plus approximately 15 'holidays' where cumulatively there would be a cessation of all productive activity for approximately 70 days, or about 20percent of the year. These days of 'non-activity' would help achieve the shared goal outlined in the Paris Climate Conference (COP21) of a 20 percent reduction of pollution globally by 2050, with the aim of keeping global warming below 2 degreesC ... This frantic race to go faster and faster makes us forget essential things, such as loving ourselves, others and also our earth ... the result is a global disaster, whose ecological impact is more and more obvious. A Sabbath for ourselves, our industry and our environment is a corrective to these failures."

POLAND’S PRESIDENT SIGNS SUNDAY LAW (January 2018)
In a move that will no doubt be carefully watched by other European countries, Poland’s President Andrzej Duda signed a law today that limits trade on Sundays.

Remember, the fall of communism began with a movement in Poland. Full article from ABC News below.
