Commissioner John Schneck moved to approve the extension, Commissioner Julie Sheehan seconded, and the motion passed unanimously by roll call.
Deputy Director Michael Boardman and Director Luchini explained that rulemaking would begin for two games — Millionaire for Life and Powerball X's and O's — to ensure regulatory frameworks align with product launches.
