Gambling activities by persons under age eighteen prohibited — Penalties — Jurisdiction — In-house controlled purchase programs authorized. 9.46.231 Gambling devices, real and personal property — Seizure and forfeiture. The Federal government has designated some forms of gambling as prohibited within the US and has created laws that are non-negotiable in the regulation of such prohibited activities. On this subject, the Federal government may outlaw any form of gambling and states must abide by their law as Federal regulation will always trump state laws. In addition to the Wire Act, there are several other federal laws that may be invoked against online gambling, but all of them are dependent on the gambling in question being already illegal. So these laws address not gambling, but illegal gambling, for instance the UIGEA’s prohibiting financial transactions related to illegal gambling. If state-run lotteries are included, almost every state can be said to allow some form of gambling. However, casino-style gambling is much less widespread. Federal law provides leeway for Native American Trust Land to be used for games of chance if an agreement is put in place between the State and the Tribal Government under the Indian Gaming.

AGA is committed to stopping illegal gambling by partnering with law enforcement to develop national, state and local opportunities for action and engagement. The AGA will commission authoritative research on all forms of illegal gambling and strengthen partnerships with elected officials, law enforcement and regulators to combat this national problem that’s siphoning tax revenues from state and localities, and tarnishing our highly regulated industry’s reputation.

More than 30 law enforcement leaders from across the country gathered in June 2016 at AGA’s office in Washington for the organization’s first-ever Law Enforcement Summit to better understand the massive illegal sports betting market in the U.S and what steps can be taken to address it.

In a robust town hall discussion, law enforcement spoke of the illegal sports betting market as a significant problem and of regulation as a potential solution. Based on input from the Summit, the AGA’s Illegal Gambling Advisory Board authored an after-action report that serves as a guide for stakeholders – including policymakers, regulators and sports leagues – to develop potential solutions.

The effort is a component of AGA’s “Stop Illegal Gambling – Play it Safe” initiative which is uniting gaming and law enforcement to expose the massive illegal gambling market that preys on consumers, siphons tax revenues and funds violent crime. AGA also launched a new website – StopIllegalGambling.org – to serve as an information hub.
