MISSION: NATIONAL GAMBLING AMENDMENT BILL

                                                                                                                                   

 

As a Jewish Community we support the amendments to the National Gambling legislation.

 

The restrictions on granting credit to gamblers including the carefully grafted “Protection for children and other vulnerable persons”.  It is specifically of importance to our faith-based community, that issues such as gambling exposure and addiction to gambling are avoided.
