legalize and regulate online sports wagering for United States citizens.

Created by D.A. on February 09, 2014

1) Per your past response regarding online poker, thank you for continuing to examine this issue and remaining open to solutions.
2) It's true there are challenges, but America has not backed down from challenges when fighting for what is right.
3) There are many means of technology circumventing restrictions, but that is true of every website.
4) Potential for fraud would decrease if these sites were legal and regulated.
5) It's true that unregulated gambling sites could be used in money laundering schemes through internet transactions - that's why these sites need to be regulated.
6) There is potential for the misuse of anything; if online sports wagering is regulated, that potential would decrease.
7) The vast majority of citizens in the world can wager online - why not us?
