AGA and IGA lobby Congress against sports prediction markets
The American Gaming Association and Indian Gaming Association are pressing US lawmakers to oppose sports prediction markets, arguing that they threaten state regulatory authority and market integrity. AGA representatives appeared with IGA leaders ahead of a closed House Agriculture Committee hearing; the report says 15 states are in litigation and 40 state attorneys general signed an opposing brief.
The organisations’ campaign could shape congressional and state-level policy affecting sports betting and prediction-market operators.
