U.S. Rep. Paul Tonko (New York) first announced plans for the Supporting Affordability and Fairness with Every Bet (SAFE Bet) Act in March 2024 and shared an outline of its measures. He then formally introduced it along with Sen. Richard Blumenthal (Connecticut) on Sept. 12 and held a press conference.
