NE2: The Northeast Gambling Tax Reform Act

[H.E. VOLODYMYR ZELENKSYY]

The Northeast Gambling Tax Reform Act

1. The gambling tax is hereby reduced by 5%.

2. Anybody who wins 100$ or more through gambling is required to donate at least 5% of his winning to any charity of his choice.

Sponsor: Goldwater.

Goldy, you have 24 hours to advocate for this bill or I'll be forced to enter a legal gray area. Debate time will last 24 hours total.

What is the current gambling tax benefit? We set it with Winfield's things, but I've forgotten by now.

[Goldwater]

This was originally an amendment to a bill that Jerseyrules made, but unfortunately he failed to declare it friendly or unfriendly before debate ended, so I decided to propose it as a separate bill. The goal of this bill is to give people more say in where their tax dollars go in the most efficient way possible.

I think this was supposed to be in NE2. Sorry guys.

And does anyone have the numbers for what this will do?

I feel as if enforcement would be impossible, and for that reason I am opposed. Voluntarism only works on a large scale.

Oh. Debate time expired yesterday. Representatives will vote Aye, Nay, or Abstain on the final text. Voting will last 24 hours.
