They aren’t in a position to pull back on the scheme, this arrangement is the product of international agreement between countries and, thankfully, far beyond the remit of those scum at the IRS
It’s not about pulling back, it’s more about not all properties having a tax agent on site that can issue ITIN. I had the same problem once while staying at Harrahs, hit a $4000 jackpot and had to eat the 30% tax as they didn’t have a tax agent. They could also hold the win for me until I sorted one out.
The bigger properties like Aria, Bellagio and Venetian all do it, can’t advise on any of the others.
