Innkeepers in Brazil are resisting proposed legislation that would authorize the development of a maximum of 32 new gambling establishments. They contend that games of chance should be permitted at existing holiday destinations. This method, they assert, would be more fiscally prudent since it would utilize current facilities and avoid the need for new construction.
The discourse surrounding wagering in Brazil has intensified lately. In 2018, departing President Michel Temer made sports wagering lawful, and just last month, a measure was introduced to empower states to grant licenses for casinos. According to the suggested statute, the population of each state would determine the number of gambling venues permitted. For instance, states with fewer than 15 million residents would be allowed a single casino.
A Congressional bill proposes permitting states with 15 to 25 million inhabitants to establish a pair of gaming establishments, while those possessing a larger citizenry could have a maximum of three.
