North Dakota House passes changes to Gaming Commission
What started as an effort to eliminate North Dakota’s Gaming Commission has instead turned into a plan to revive it. On Wednesday, the House overwhelmingly passed an amended version of Senate Bill 2224, aiming to strengthen—not scrap—the commission. The bill, originally introduced by Sen. Janne Myrdal, now ensures the commission meets quarterly, maintains five active members, and outlines clearer enforcement procedures. After years of dormancy, the message is clear: if the Gaming Commission is going to exist, it needs to function.
SB 2224
A BILL for an Act to amend and reenact section 53-06.1-01.1 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to the abolition of the gaming commission and the authorization of the attorney general to administer and regulate gaming.
