Legal, California Internet Poker Moving Forward

July 21st, 2008 by admin

In an update to our February story, about Assemblyman Lloyd Levine sponsoring bill AB2026 calling on the California Gambling Control Commission (CGCC) to carry out the study into controlling and operating internet gambling operations, the bill was approved by the Senate Governmental Organization Committee on Tuesday, June 24 on a 6-1 vote, with amendments to move forward on drafting regulations and generating projections for potential revenue.

The Attorney General’s Bureau of Gambling Control, the state Gaming Control Commission and the Legislative Counsel will now recommend a structure for the system, analyze potential revenue and draft regulations to be included in the bill’s language as it moves to the Senate Appropriations Committee in August, its final stop before a Senate floor.
