AGA in favour of Congressional Gaming Caucus
The association AGA celebrates the relaunch of the Congressional Gaming Caucus, which discusses federal policy issues related to the casino industry.
US.- The American Gaming Association (AGA) has discussed the relaunch of the Congressional Gaming Caucus, which is seen as a positive move for the gambling industry in the US. AGA congratulated co-chairs Rep. Bennie Thompson and Rep. Guy Reschenthaler for relaunching the platform.
The caucus, comprised of a broad representation of more than 30 members of Congress from across the country, will serve as a platform to discuss federal policy issues related to the US casino industry and educate Congressional colleagues on related regulatory and legislative matters.
“Relaunching the Congressional Gaming Caucus is one of the American Gaming Association’s top priorities, and I’m grateful to Reps. Thompson and Reschenthaler for their leadership,” said Bill Miller, president and CEO. “As gaming expands, it’s more important than ever that members of Congress from both gaming and non-gaming states appreciate the important role our industry plays in communities across the country. The AGA looks forward to working with the caucus on policies that strengthen the gaming industry and tell our positive story on Capitol Hill.”
The reconstitution of the Congressional Gaming Caucus enables the AGA to augment the association’s efforts to address key priorities such as highlighting the gaming industry’s strong commitment to anti-money laundering compliance, ensuring responsible gaming is a signature industry priority, and maintaining state regulation of gaming, including sports betting.
