SB 860: Gaming: bingo.
What SB 860 does, verified December 13, 2025
The bill aims to repeal and amend existing laws related to bingo games for charitable purposes. The current laws permit cities, counties, and cities and counties to regulate bingo games under specific criteria, with a violation considered a misdemeanor. The laws also allow players to use hand-held, portable card-minding devices to assist in monitoring bingo numbers. The bill would repeal provisions allowing remote caller bingo, requiring the regulation of card-minding devices, and establishing requirements for their use. It would also remove the need for approval from the department of justice for card-minding devices.
