Hawaii was among the US states that had no form of legal gambling. But hopefully, that is about to change.

Rep. John Mizuno announced that he would introduce his Sports Gaming Bill on Jan. 9 to Hawaii’s Legislature.

As it happens in most cases, US citizens who live in states that do not allow legal sports betting travel to the states where gambling is legal. They frequently visit the most popular gambling destinations, like Las Vegas and Atlantic City.

John Mizuno believes it is better to introduce a Hawaii gambling bill, discuss options and, eventually, keep the money that gambling brings within the state.
