Alabama gambling proposal remains stalled in Senate as session nears end
Alabama lawmakers had not revived a gambling proposal in the state Senate as the legislative session approached its end, according to reports on 8 May 2024. The conference committee plan would authorise a lottery and electronic games of chance at seven locations, but not table games; it had passed the House 72–29 and previously fell one vote short in the Senate.
The proposal’s status determines whether Alabama could advance a lottery and casino-style gambling legislation during the session.
