AB 2793 California Assembly · 2025-2026 Regular Session

California Gambling Control Commission.

Summary
Existing law, the Gambling Control Act, provides for the licensure and regulation of various legalized gambling activities and establishments by the California Gambling Control Commission and the investigation and enforcement of those activities by the Department of Justice. Under existing law, the commission consists of 5 members who are appointed by the Governor, subject to confirmation by the Senate. Existing law requires one member of the commission, among other criteria, to be an attorney with regulatory law experience. This bill would instead require one member of the commission, among other criteria, to be an attorney with regulatory or gaming law experience. The bill would make other technical, nonsubstantive changes.

What changed between versions

03/17/26 - Introduced AB2793 · 1 edit
MINOR
No substantive policy changes occurred between these two versions. The difference is entirely in formatting and presentation: the original was a plain-text legislative document with line numbers and page markers, while the new version is a web-page rendering that adds navigation elements (search, links, favorites) and reflows the text for online display. The actual bill language, including the amendment to require a commission member with regulatory or gaming law experience, is identical in both versions.
TECHNICAL

The bill was reformatted from a plain-text legislative document (with line numbers, page markers, and fixed-width layout) into a web-page presentation that includes site navigation, search tools, and reflowed text. No policy language was changed.
