An Act amending Title 4 (Amusements) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in general provisions relating to gaming, further providing for definitions; and, in interactive gaming, further providing for Internet cafes and prohibition.
This bill updates Pennsylvania gaming laws by adding specific definitions for school entities and school property. It requires interactive gaming and sports wagering operators to use geospatial technology to block registered players from accessing games on their own devices while they are inside licensed facilities or on school grounds. The legislation aims to prevent minors and students from participating in online gambling through personal computers at these locations. The changes will take effect 60 days after the bill is passed.
