Bill to Study Gambling Before Lawmakers

By /
Reminder: Two Senate committees will meet Wednesday (Feb. 29) to consider a bill that establishes a gambling commission to study gambling’s costs and benefits.

The measure may be the best hopes of gaming proponents this session, in that gambling may have a better chance in 2013 — not an election year.

The bill calls for the commission to report back to the Legislature this October.
