Bahia governor resubmits state lottery proposal to Alba
Bahia Governor Jerônimo Rodrigues sent a state lottery proposal back to the Bahia Legislative Assembly, where it awaits a statement from House President Ivana Bastos before its next stage. The proposal would create Loteba and direct net proceeds to social assistance, education and culture. The Assembly previously withdrew the text after changes to BahiaInveste’s responsibilities, and it must now receive a new bill number.
The proposal’s progress will determine whether Bahia can establish a state lottery and allocate its proceeds to the listed public services.
