To create more jobs and opportunities for people, the WPA worked to pass the law so that gambling could be revived. Cities like Reno and Las Vegas became the staple center for gambling.

According to Nevada Law Magazine (2014), states that on Easter weekend in 1931, over 5,000 people from different states came to Reno to take advantage of the new law.
