CGA is dedicated to protecting the industry’s interests through monitoring the legislative and regulatory processes, advocating for policies that support the industry, and educating policymakers about the positive impact cardrooms have on California communities.
Issues may include:
LEGISLATION
SUCCESS IN 2017
CGA successfully helped defeat Assembly Bill 5 by Assemblymember Lorena Gonzalez-Fletcher. The legislation would have required an employer with 10 or more employees to offer additional hours of work to an existing nonexempt employee before hiring an additional employee or subcontractor. The bill would have authorized an employee to file a complaint for violation and bring a civil action.
REGULATIONS
CGA leadership is in regular communication with the various state agencies that oversee the cardroom industry. We work to maintain an open line of communications and have invited representatives to provide informational seminars on compliance.
California Gambling Control Commission
California Bureau of Gambling Control
California Department of Public Health Office of Problem Gambling
LEGAL
CGA exercises legal actions when necessary to best protect the state’s licensed cardrooms. In addition, we provide our individual members with legal resources and recommendations for specific needs.
