The Winter Conference -- which attracts legislators, gaming regulators and policy makers from across the U.S. -- will feature Geoff Freeman, President and CEO of the American Gaming Association (AGA), as a morning keynote speaker.
"Our intent, as always, is to conduct thought-provoking discussions and arm our members with the information they need to make responsible decisions that are right for their communities," said Senator Becky Harris of Nevada, NCLGS Treasurer.
Additional NCLGS sessions focus on a variety of issues, including:
Responsible Gaming
Pari-Mutuels
Lotteries
Tribal and State Relations
Gaming Technology
Women in Gaming
NCLGS is the only organization of state lawmakers that meets on a regular basis to discuss issues relating to gaming, and to provide insights to key elected officials from around the nation who play critical roles in developing gaming policy in their respective states. NCLGS does not promote or oppose gaming but is primarily concerned with the proper regulation of the industry and the dissemination of best practices.
Sen. Bill Galvano of Florida serves as President of NCLGS, and is the incoming Senate President of Florida.
