January 17, 2022 Group Watch: Get Ready for Gambling Legislation, Again
A push is underway for a comprehensive gaming bill during the 2022 legislative session. New ads highlighting the economic impact of approving a comprehensive gambling and lottery bill are running primetime across the state. The Alabama Track Owners Association, a partnership of owners of the four greyhound racing tracks, including the Poarch Creek Indians, are running ads that emphasize jobs created by passage of such a bill would generate more than $700 million annually and that encourage voters to contact their state lawmakers.
