A quartet of Wyoming legislators, seemingly out of nowhere, introduced an online casino bill this week.
Representatives Jon Conrad, Robert Davis, Sandy Newsome, and Tom Walters introduced House Bill 120 to legalize “interactive gaming” and to be overseen by the Wyoming Gaming Commission.
Walters was the primary sponsor of Wyoming’s successful 2021 effort to legalize online sports betting and fantasy sports. DraftKings, FanDuel, Caesars, and BetMGM operate there.
The online casino bill would allow gamblers 18 and older to play and operators would be taxed at a 10% rate.
