Summary
The original 2024 text of the PCS for HB 189 in the Florida House of Representatives, a bill relating to gaming control. The bill would prohibit falsely personating Florida Gaming Control Commission personnel, require that keeping a gambling house be committed knowingly and raise its penalty, and increase penalties for slot machine violations. It would create s. 849.155, F.S., making trafficking in more than 15 slot machines or devices a first-degree felony with fines of $100,000, $250,000 or $500,000 depending on quantity, deposited into the Pari-mutuel Wagering Trust Fund. It would also create offenses for false statements about slot machine legality, transporting persons for illegal gambling and illegal gambling advertisements, and preempt gambling regulation to the state. The 66-page bill closes with offense severity rankings and takes effect July 1, 2024.
