Bill Summary
For legislation to allow for video lottery terminals. Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure.
AI Summary
This bill allows for the implementation of a statewide wide area network system of video lottery gaming in Massachusetts. It grants licenses to operate video lottery terminals to businesses that are licensed to serve alcohol (under Section 12 of Chapter 138) or conduct racing meetings (under Section 3 of Chapter 128A), as long as they do not owe any financial obligations to the state and have not been convicted of a felony. The bill outlines requirements for the video lottery terminals, such as being located in age-restricted areas and incorporating play safe options. All revenues generated from the video lottery terminals, after payouts and operational costs, will be used to fund aid to cities and towns. The Massachusetts Gaming Commission is required to issue a request for proposals to implement the statewide video lottery network system.
