HB 620 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

Casino winnings; provide procedures for intercept of child support arrearages.

HB 620 requires Mississippi casinos to withhold a portion of a parent’s winnings from slot machines or cash games to pay unpaid child support arrears. It directly affects parents with outstanding child support obligations who win money at licensed casinos. Key provisions include mandating the Gaming Commission to create rules for intercepting winnings (like regular slot machine payouts), requiring real-time data sharing between the Department of Human Services and casinos, and shielding casinos from liability for following these rules. The bill died in committee on February 3, 2026, and was never enacted.
