Wiger speaks in favor of electronic charitable gambling
Sen. Chuck Wiger, DFL-Maplewood, spoke in favor Wednesday of allowing electronic forms of charitable gambling, such as electronic pull tabs or Bingo in a hearing of the Senate Committee on State Government Innovation and Veterans.
In a recent news report on wthm.com, Channel 8 reported that the Govenor Malloy of Connecticut feels more money will be spent on repairing the damage online gambling could cause with players that suffer from addictions than the positive outcomes of generated revenue to the state.
