Petition

Regulate and reduce gambling and casino advertising on all media platforms

Rejected 9 signatures

What the petition asks

This is a call for action from regulators to step up and enact protections that prevent exploitative marketing tactics from constantly preying on those fighting to regain control of their lives. 
Gambling addiction is a serious concern that deeply affects millions of individuals and families. In a world where gambling is increasingly accessible and aggressively marketed.

Constant advertisements on radio, TV, newspapers, and streaming platforms only exacerbates this issue, creating an environment where the vulnerable are perpetually tempted and triggered. How are individuals expected to recover when the very vice they are struggling to overcome is relentlessly promoted at every turn?
