Brazilian Senate postpones land-based gambling bill vote until 2025
Brazil's Senate postponed a vote on a bill covering casinos, horse racing, bingo and jogo do bicho until 2025. Senator Flávio Arns proposed delaying the vote and removing its urgent status; 33 senators signed the proposal. A request for the Health Ministry to assess budgetary effects and possible impacts on SUS and SUAS was also made.
The postponement delays a proposed change to Brazil's rules for several land-based gambling activities.
