It represents the maturity of an idea that is already majority in the House and shows that the legalization of the activity is something accepted in the legislative environment. This is very representative because it is the confirmation that the legislature is prepared and, for the most part, accepting the idea that gaming should be regulated.

The directors of the front understand that it is possible to pass legislation in the House this year still, transform into law at the beginning of next year and then regulation.
