AI Summary

This bill aims to responsibly protect employment and revenue derived from the Commonwealth's gaming industry. It proposes to authorize Category 2 gaming licensees, which operate gaming establishments with no more than 1,250 slot machines, to host up to 30 table games and an additional 250 slot machines. The bill requires the gaming commission to consider such requests from licensees and the authorization of the host community, and to determine that the request meets the applicable requirements and is in the Commonwealth's best interests. Any authorization granted under this bill would terminate if the Category 2 licensee's license is not renewed, is terminated, surrendered, or suspended.
