The debate regarding legalization of gambling and casinos in Georgia is all set to resume next month.

The Augusta Chronicle reported Georgia Rep. Ron Stephens, R-Savannah, chairman of the House Economic Development & Tourism Committee’s statement as: “It’s the easiest one to pass. It clearly does not require a constitutional amendment. … It’s just a matter of us giving the [Georgia] Lottery Commission direction and authority they already have.”
