Below is a statement from Kentuckians Against Illegal Gambling (KAIG) regarding the Kentucky House tabling HB 594 to ban gray machines. The statement should be attributed to Mark Guilfoyle, Executive Director of KAIG.
“We’re extremely disappointed in Representative Doan and all members of the Kentucky House who voted to table House Bill 594. They just voted for the largest expansion of gambling in our state’s history.
The fight to ban gray machines and protect Kentucky families is far from over. We strongly encourage the House to reconsider HB 594 as soon as possible. Not passing House Bill 594 is a vote for the continued proliferation of untaxed, unregulated and dangerous illegal gambling across the Commonwealth.”
