Rep. Russ Diamond proposed a reform to Pennsylvania's Gaming Act to legalize and regulate skill games with a 20% tax rate, aiming to provide nearly $1 billion in additional property tax relief before a court ruling deems these games illegal starting October 13.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Other, and 3 sources have reported it between 1 Sep 2026 and 2 Sep 2026.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face a legal deadline on October 13 that will impact Pennsylvania's skill gaming market and associated revenue streams. The new 20% tax regime creates an opportunity to engage early with a newly regulated market and target organisations affected by these changes.
