Charitable Gaming Oversight Commission Bill Gains Momentum

Not all interactions at the State House has required the nonprofit sector to play defense. HB 328, which would establish a Charitable Gaming Oversight Commission, has gained strong bipartisan support and is progressing swiftly through the legislative process.

The bill passed unanimously in the House and has already received a Senate hearing. If enacted, the commission would provide much-needed oversight and policy guidance on charitable gaming operations across the state.

This development marks a proactive step toward ensuring transparency and fairness in how charitable gaming supports nonprofit organizations.

Nonprofits are encouraged to stay updated and support measures that improve regulatory clarity and protect gaming-based fundraising.
