Illinois will “at some point” legalize real money online casino gaming, the state’s attorney general predicted Thursday.
Illinois is set to legalize iGaming as part of its continued gaming expansions of recent years, Attorney General Kwame Raoul said Thursday. Speaking at a meeting of the National Council of Legislators from Gaming States, Raoul predicted iCasinos would be among the next wave of expansion in a state that already is one of the nation’s largest gaming markets.
Raoul served nearly 15 years in the state legislature before he was elected Attorney General in 2018. Though he can no longer vote on legislation directly in his current role, Raoul indicated Thursday that he was bullish on potential iGaming expansion.
