New Jersey lawmakers advance bills on gambling adverts and study
New Jersey lawmakers are considering bills to restrict gambling adverts near schools and colleges and those predominantly aimed at people under 21. Assembly bill A5562 cleared a committee on 8 May, and senators introduced companion bill S4366 on 12 May. If approved, the Division of Gaming Enforcement would study advert wording and recommend phrases for casino and sports betting adverts.
The proposals could change where operators advertise and require specified wording in casino and sports betting adverts.
