"If we scrap this tax, I believe it will increase revenue,"" said Sen. Barrow Peacock, R-Bossier City, the sponsor of the measure, Senate Bill 332, which had been amended from the original target, as reported by The Advocate. However, he had not yet drawn up a tax bill by the legislative staff that would predict whether the measure would generate more state taxes.

Sen. Ronnie Johns, R-Lake Charles, said the gambling industry needs help because the state has halted its operations to protect customers and workers from coronavirus contamination. The move has so far cost the state at least $100 million in gambling taxes, Johns said Bola tangkas.

"They're our business partner now,"" the committee's chairman, Sen. Gary Smith, D-Norco, said in a comment that illustrated why each of the pro-gambling accounts went through his committee.

Only the Louisiana Family Forum, a conservative, faith-based group, objected, but its representative chose not to speak to the committee.

Johns and state Sen. Cameron Henry, R-Metairie, sponsored identical measures for sports betting (Senate Bill 378 and Senate Bill 130) that would let voters decide on November 3 whether they would allow betting in their parish.

Last year, the Senate approved a bill to legalize sports betting, but it failed to pass in the House of Representatives during a final standoff with proponents of a separate measure that would set taxes and regulations for yet another form of gambling, fantasy sports. Voters had legalized fantasy sports in 47 parishes in 2018, but people in Louisiana could not start playing until after the legislature approved an additional step that would set taxes and rules. That effort died along with the pressure on sports betting last year. "Everyone involved last year seems to be on the same page [now]," Henry said.

Peacock complained to the committee that during the current legislative session he could not try to legalize fantasy sports because a two-thirds vote would be needed to approve taxes, and he said the threshold was too high.

The Senate Judiciary Committee has not re-passed a gambling law, Senate Bill 257. It would allow video poker truck stops to get an exemption from having to sell a certain amount of fuel each month if a storm had turned it off and rebuild it. The sponsor of SB257, state Sen. Troy Carter, D-New Orleans, said he plans to offer the bill at the next committee meeting.
