Thanks to loud opposition from the attractions industry, Senate Bill 412 failed to advance during the 2019 Nevada State Legislative Session. SB 412 would have impacted operators of amusement arcades and centers open to the general public, making it a misdemeanor to allow an unaccompanied minor to run or play a redemption game or any amusement device that offers a reward other than free play for winning.
In these games of skill, players can obtain a reward proportional to their score. Rewards can come in the form of non-cash prizes directly or tickets that can be redeemed for prizes of varying value. They’re long-established amusement games suitable for family leisure environments and are commonplace across the country.
Thank you for voicing your opposition to defeat SB 412 by showing your elected officials the attractions industry provides clean, wholesome, and safe entertainment for guests of all ages while maintaining the highest standards in quality and service.
