According to TheHill.com, a group of at least 10 state attorneys have signed a letter to congressional leaders and the House and Senate Judiciary committees asking Congress to keep online gaming illegal in the country.
The letter was first presented last year by Sheldon Adelson, chairman of casino and resort Last Vegas Sand Corporation, who is funding the Coalition to Stop Internet Gambling campaign group. In 2011, the Justice Department ruled that the anti-fraud Wire Act only prohibits online sportsbetting and not other forms of online gambling. Since the ruling, the US states of Nevada, Delaware and New Jersey have legalized online gambling.The added support of state attorneys general to the campaign will boost the effort with such individuals serving as the top law enforcement official in each state and thus having the final word on enforcing online gaming rules.
“Online gambling exacerbates problems associated with gambling addiction and we are proud to be working with a number of other states to address the issue, the letter from the state officials said. Given the inherently interstate nature of internet gambling transactions, we anticipate that it will become increasingly difficult to effectively regulate such conduct as additional jurisdictions consider legalising internet gambling”.
