Not enough signal yet to read this bill's trajectory — we surface a likelihood only once there's real movement (stage, sponsorship, committee, or votes) to point to.

Prognosis reads this bill's own signals — stage, sponsorship breadth, committee status, recorded votes and cross-state momentum. Odds come from a model trained on which bills have become law.

In plain language

Permits electronic requests for self-exclusion from gambling.

This bill allows individuals to electronically request to be added to or removed from self-exclusion lists for gambling. It ensures that electronic requests are treated the same as traditional submissions in terms of record keeping and processing.

Summary

Requires that procedures for placements on, and removals from, the list of persons self-excluded from gambling includes procedures that allow a person to submit requests electronically; requires such procedures to ensure parity between electronic and non-electronic requests with respect to record retention and transmission of requests to licensed gaming facilities and mobile sports wagering platforms.
