Missourians [began] seeing ads for the Missouri sports betting initiative this week. The Winning for Missouri Education proponent campaign for Amendment 2 dropped its first commercial Monday on YouTube.

The 30-second ad on the Sports Betting Alliance Missouri channel highlights how sports betting revenue could help increase pay for Missouri teachers.

Campaign spokesperson Jack Cardetti explained in a press release:

“These ads capture the true essence of what Amendment 2 is all about — ensuring every Missouri child has access to a quality education. We’re thrilled to have the voices of Missouri families leading the charge, and we believe their reasons for voting for Amendment 2 will resonate with voters across the state.”
