São José dos Campos council considers repealing municipal lottery law
São José dos Campos city council is considering a proposal to repeal the law that established its municipal lottery. Council member Lino Bispo filed Complementary Bill 6/2026, arguing that the Federal Supreme Court's position and federal law do not authorise municipalities to operate lotteries; the bill remains under consideration.
The proposal challenges the legal basis for a municipal lottery and its ability to generate local revenue.
