Vermont’s Department of Lottery last week rolled out a 125-page Request for Proposal for sports wagering operators that will give preference to companies based in the state, that use products manufactured in the state, and that “demonstrate business practices that promote clean energy and address climate change.”
The regulator is mandated to award between two and six licenses for digital platforms and provided a rubric for how applicants will be scored.
The Vermont RFP also includes a section titled “Solidarity With the Ukrainian People” in which bidders are asked to check a box that indicates that no “goods, products or materials offered in response to this solicitation are Russian-sourced goods or produced by Russian entities.”
