AI Summary

This bill aims to enhance education and combat addiction at slot parlors and casinos. It proposes to amend the General Laws by adding a new section that requires all slot machines to have a sticker affixed to the front of the machine, in plain sight of the user. The sticker would delineate the addictive nature of slot machines, information about their programming and non-randomness, and provide the compulsive gambling hotline phone number. The goal of this measure is to increase awareness and provide critical information to casino and slot parlor patrons.
