I support the bill as of its current state. Little reason the Federal government should be involved in gambling.

I'm not particularly fond of gambling, but regulations on it should be a regional issue, not a federal issue. So I'll support this.

TBH I don't even support moving it to a regional issue. I fail to see why two or more consenting adults can not give each other money on condition of a certain event passing excluding fraudulent scenarios.

I am in support of this bill. It's time to legalize sports betting, especially in the wake of the Murphy v. NCAA ruling by the Supreme Court in real life.

As Deputy Speaker during Jimmy's leave of absence, I'll take over the voting for this bill.

A vote on this bill is open and will close after 72 hours, or when all members have voted. Members, please vote AYE, NAY, or ABSTAIN!

To give Indian Tribal governments time to write their own particularized regulations.
