However, the release of <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/casino-en\/\">casinos<\/a>, Jogo do Bicho and other forms of gaming changed the climate drastically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The discussion was so great that religious leaders managed, once again, for the vote by the <strong>Senate Constitution and Justice Committee (CCJ)<\/strong> to be postponed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Religious mobilization against casinos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the eve of the vote, the cell phones of several parliamentarians were bombarded with a video of pastor <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Silas_Malafaia\">Silas Malafaia<\/a><\/strong>. He asked evangelicals to put pressure on CCJ members, stating that &#8220;two thirds of these senators will vote for re-election in 2026&#8221; and threatening to denounce anyone who voted in favor of the project in the elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"696\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Pressao-de-religiosos-acaba-com-o-clima-pro-cassino-do-Senado.jpg\" alt=\"Silas Malafaia is against the casino bill\" class=\"wp-image-152423\" srcset=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Pressao-de-religiosos-acaba-com-o-clima-pro-cassino-do-Senado.jpg 696w, https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Pressao-de-religiosos-acaba-com-o-clima-pro-cassino-do-Senado-300x162.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image: Silas Malafaia (Disclosure)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The<strong> CNBB (National Conference of Brazilian Bishops)<\/strong> also joined the discussion, sending a public note to Catholic senators. Thus, the note warned about the moral and social harm of betting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the morning of the vote, the office of <strong>senator Eduardo Gir\u00e3o (Novo-CE)<\/strong> mapped the votes and concluded that there was enough support to block the proposal. Gir\u00e3o, one of the opposition leaders, quickly withdrew his request to postpone the vote. He stated that it was necessary to make it clear to society how each senator was thinking about the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then, senators who previously supported the release of the games, such as<strong> Eduardo Braga (MDB-AM)<\/strong> and<strong> Rog\u00e9rio Carvalho (PT-SE)<\/strong>, started asking for the outcome to be postponed. According to senator <strong>Carlos Viana (Podemos-MG)<\/strong>, parliamentarians realized that they &#8220;will lose&#8221; if they vote in favor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Impact of the bill in Brazil<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The project has been discussed in the National Congress for more than 30 years. Despite attempts to advance, opposition from the evangelical bench and conservative sectors has always been an obstacle. But, in recent years, the international lobby has grown and become stronger, promising billion-dollar investments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At that moment, tax collection began to be attractive. The current text allows the creation of <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/casino-en\/\">casinos<\/a> integrated into leisure complexes, such as hotels, shopping malls and restaurants. The proposal authorizes up to three <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/casino-en\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"casino\">casino<\/a> resorts per state, depending on population and territorial extension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But only<strong> S\u00e3o Paulo<\/strong>, with more than 25 million inhabitants, could install three <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/casino-en\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"casino\">casino<\/a> resorts. <strong>Minas Gerais<\/strong> and <strong>Rio de Janeiro<\/strong>, with populations between 15 and 25 million, could have two casinos each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Amazonas<\/strong> and <strong>Par\u00e1<\/strong>, due to the exception for territories with more than 1 million km\u00b2, could also have two casinos each. The <strong>other states<\/strong> and the<strong> Federal District<\/strong> would have the right to one <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/en\/casino-en\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"casino\">casino<\/a>-resort each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, if approved, the proposal legalizes gambling, limiting the installation of one for every 700 thousand inhabitants per state. Rio de Janeiro, with 16 million inhabitants, could open up to 22 gambling establishments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/bingo\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Bingo\">Bingo<\/a> houses would operate in physical, electronic and video <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/bingo\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Bingo\">bingo<\/a> formats, the latter limited to 400 machines per establishment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The accreditation limit will be one <a href=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/bingo\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Bingo\">bingo<\/a> house for every 150 thousand inhabitants per city. While turf betting establishments could also operate bingos and video bingos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Senators demand government position on casinos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the uncertainty of the scenario, two government senators stated that the Lula (PT) government must define a position on the proposal. &#8220;The PT was always against it. It was Lula who ended bingo in Brazil [in 2004, after suspicion of corruption]. If there is any ethics left from this government, let it demonstrate it now,&#8221; said Gir\u00e3o.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"571\" src=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cassinos-Senado.jpg\" alt=\"Senado Casinos\" class=\"wp-image-152429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cassinos-Senado.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cassinos-Senado-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cassinos-Senado-768x428.jpg 768w, https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cassinos-Senado-696x388.jpg 696w, https:\/\/igamingbrazil.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Cassinos-Senado-753x420.jpg 753w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">President of the CCJ, Davi Alcolumbre postponed the vote until next week.
