MACOMB, ILL. -- Macomb will soon be the newest home to video gaming.

The state of Illinois recently passed a new law allowing push button gaming in local businesses, but now its up to local governments to change their laws to allow it.

According to the McDonough County Voice, during a recent city council meeting, aldermen adopted an ordinance,  giving the city the licensing ability for video gaming allowed under state law.

Quincy and Carthage have already passed a similar ordinance.
