Rep. Brandt Iden of the Michigan House updated local reporters on the progress of online gambling legalisation bills in the state House and Senate this week.
Rep. Iden has emerged as the pointman on the House proposals, and claimed that both Senate and House bills have cleared their respective committees and now await action by the respective full chambers.
The proposals envisage online gambling licenses being made available to existing land casino licensees, ensuring that the vertical is as strictly regulated as land gambling activity for the protection of consumers.
