Where it is in the process
Plain-English Summary

This bill requires standardized disclaimers on advertisements for lottery and fantasy contest products. It also establishes a list of self-excluded persons for fantasy contests, allowing individuals to ban themselves from participating and prohibiting operators from marketing to them. Additionally, the bill introduces new rules for cashless wagering systems in gaming establishments, including betting limits and monthly statements for patrons, and mandates the collection and anonymization of gambling data for research purposes. Finally, it creates a special commission to study problem gambling and make recommendations for prevention, detection, and treatment.
