AI summary Licensed organizations would be allowed to host one game night every month instead of just once a year. To do this, they must still follow all the usual application and authorization rules.1

Read the official explanation

This bill allows a licensed qualified organization to conduct one game night per calendar month so long as other application and authorization requirements are met. Currently, licensed qualified organizations are only allowed to conduct one game night per calendar year.
