Another state legislature has abandoned talks to legalize online casino gambling. New Hampshire Sen. Tim Lang tabled his online casino bill in the Senate Ways and Means Committee last week. The decision came despite the committee recommending passage.
Lang also sponsored similar legislation in 2023, when it passed the Senate. That legislation had three other sponsors.
Lang’s bill would have put the New Hampshire Lottery in charge of regulating the online casino industry. The lottery commission would then issue between three and six licenses connected to existing gaming facilities. The legislation set the tax rate at 45%.
It would also have been the first state to allow 18- to 20-year-olds to use online casino platforms.
