Barney Frank’s online gambling bill finally introduced
Well, we’ll know tomorrow when we see the register of what was introduced today, but the on again off again online gambling bill is finally about to make an appearance after many months of promises.
The new bill would exempt operators that are licensed and regulated from the ban enacted in 2006, Frank said.
The Massachusetts Democrat said his legislation “will enable Americans to bet online and put an end to an inappropriate interference with their personal freedom.
European betting shops have barred Americans from gambling and the US has even gone as far as arresting European online betting executives who happen to pass through American airports or ports. Needless to say this has caused quite a bit of controversy in the EU.
