Mobile gambling legislation proposed in New Jersey
Both pieces of proposed legislation were sponsored by New Jersey State Senator Jim Whelan, Chairman for the Senate State Government, Wagering, Tourism and Historic Preservation Committee, and will now go before the full New Jersey State Senate for review.
“Atlantic City is the economic engine of south Jersey and much of the state’s tourism-based economy and we have to be willing, from time to time, to revisit regulations and laws that may limit the resort’s appeal and national competitiveness,” said Whelan, a Democrat that represents the area around Atlantic City.
“By tweaking current laws, we can give casinos more regulatory freedom to offer diverse gaming opportunities to their patrons and can ensure that the state is doing its part to encourage non-gaming development within the designated tourism zone within Atlantic City.
“These bills, taken as a whole, will make it easier to attract new investment in Atlantic City, gaming and otherwise, and will make it easier for Atlantic City to be one of the major resort destinations along the East Coast.”
