Lawmakers in Illinois are currently discussing the possibility of legal online casinos to improve state funds, according to a report by Capitol News Illinois.
Five years since the first legal sports bets were placed in Illinois, the state is weighing up the pros and cons of legalizing online casinos, which would offer slots and table games on digital and mobile platforms.
State Representative Edgar Gonzalez addressed a panel of fellow Illinois House representatives last week about his proposal to legalize online casinos. He said, “If we had something like igaming, we would have still had a financial fallback in spite of gross negligence by the first Trump administration. Illinois is gambling with its financial future by delaying the adoption of igaming.”
