What’s in it

AI summary Veterans organizations would be allowed to host more card game tournaments each month. Instead of being limited to two tournaments per month, they would only have to wait six days between events.1

Read the official explanation

This bill concerns the frequency and timing of card game tournaments conducted by a qualified organization representing veterans. Current law prohibits the holding of a card game tournament by a qualified veterans organization within seven calendar days of another card game tournament conducted by that organization and limits the maximum number of such card game tournaments to be held in a month to two. The bill eliminates the per-month maximum and only prohibits holding a card game tournament within six calendar days of another card game tournament.
