Lawmakers withdraw request to delay skill game crackdown
Lawmakers have withdrawn their request to delay a crackdown on skill game machines, clearing the way for enforcement to proceed as planned. Skill games — gambling-style terminals often placed in bars, convenience stores and truck stops — have been a contentious issue, with critics calling them unregulated gambling and supporters arguing they provide revenue for small businesses. The withdrawal removes a proposed pause on enforcement efforts.
Why now: Enforcement against skill game machines can now move forward, affecting businesses and operators who rely on the revenue.
