Alabama State Senators will likely consider a revised version of the gambling and lottery legislation passed by the House in February this week.

A draft of the revised version of the Senate’s substitute amendment includes a statewide lottery and a requirement that the Governor negotiate a compact with the Poarch Band of Creek Indians. Sports betting or other new casino licenses aren’t included in the Senate’s draft amendment. The amendment would be voted on September 10 in a special election in the revised Senate plan. The House’s version scheduled the vote on the constitutional amendment in the general election in November.
