The bill to regulate Brazil’s land-based casinos, bingo, horse racing and jogo do bicho (instant win games) will most likely be voted on in August.

The announcement came from Senate President Rodrigo Pacheco (PSD-MG), who said that there is no need to rush with the vote on Bill 2,234/2022.

According to Pacheco, it’s best to look at the matter with a level head after the Parliament comes back from its recess, which starts on 18 July and ends on 31 July.

“There is no need to rush,” he commented. “We can vote on it perfectly well after the recess. But it will be voted on, because, having passed through the Chamber, through the Constitution, Justice and Citizenship Commission of the Senate, if there is a predisposition of the Executive, we have to submit it to a vote.”
