With the focal point squarely on proceedings at the online gambling space in Pennsylvania, the state of Michigan has thrown their hat within the ring to be the primary state to legalise online gambling since New Jersey long ago in 2013.
The bill’s creator, Senator Mike Kowall, told Cardplayer.com that there has been still ‘plenty of time’ to get the bill underneath the noses of the suitable people, and firmly believes Michigan residents may be capable of gamble online by the point Rudolph is put back into his stable.
Sen. Kowall first produced his online gambling bill (SB.899) in April 2016 but were engaged on it for 3 years leading as much as that time. The primary phase of the plan was to legalise the much simpler online lottery. That passed into law in 2014, and it'll make it easier for SB.899 to get traction.
The Senate Regulatory Reform Committee passed the bill by a vote of 8-1, which isn't surprising when you think about the bill’s co-sponsors Curtis Hertel Jr, Rebekah Warren, Bert Johnson and Marty Knollenberg all have seats on that committee.
The powers to be will return to vet the bill this week, and Kowall is confident that the bill will pass unopposed during final talks in either November or December.
