With the start of the new year there is exciting news coming in from USA as Pennsylvania is looking into legalising online gambling!
Pennsylvania state Senator Jay Costa has recently announced that he is planning to make online gambling legal in hi State and that he will be forwarding a bill that will legislate this.
His plans are clear, online gambling and daily fantasy sports will become legal if the bill goes through in Pennsylvania, of course, the bill will be grilled to perfection to make sure all the regulations are clear and make sense to everyone before turning into law.
The bill is also set to include a state lottery and to to offer online casino games too, together with taxation on land-based gaming facilities. If the bill goes through and if eventually is turned into law, the state is planning to make an astonishing $125 Million in taxes.
This attempt has already happened two times last year (2016) but failed to make it through the Senate. Legalising Online gambling including online US casinos are one of the major priorities for a lot of states around the US this year as the industry keeps getting bigger every day.
Let's just hope more states acknowledge the need of their citizens in this ever increasing online casino industry and can foresee that legalising online gambling, in a smart and responsable way, can eventually increase their revenues in taxes while quenching their citizen's online gambling desires.
