Florida legislators remove online and mobile from proposed gaming compact
In the southern American state of Florida and legislators have reportedly removed a section of a proposed agreement with the Seminole Tribe of Florida that would have allowed the tribe to offer mobile and online gaming.
According to a Monday report from the Tallahassee Democrat newspaper, the revelation from the Speaker for the Florida House of Representatives, Chris Sprowls (pictured), comes as state lawmakers are seeking to finally agree a gaming compact with the federally-recognized tribe. The Republican purportedly disclosed that the 75-page agreement now calls for the tribe to be allowed to offer sportsbetting at its seven land-based casinos spread across ‘The Sunshine State’ but without a mobile or online component.
