US.- The US Supreme Court is expected to reveal its decision regarding the federal legalisation of Sports Betting soon,
and New Jersey wants to be ready in case that happens in the upcoming months. A top lawmaker in the state said that
New Jersey will not provide integrity fee payments to major sports leagues in any bill that seeks the regulation of Sports Betting.
Deputy Assembly Speaker John Burzichelli said: “That’s not going to happen.
We’re supposed to sit down and write a check to the same people who have fought us every step of the way in our effort to provide Sports Betting?
The same leagues that forced New Jersey to spend millions to overcome their opposition to Sports Betting are going to get millions from the
New Jersey treasury when we beat them in court? I’m from New Jersey,
and I have a problem with that.”
