A Senate subcommittee in Iowa has now passed a bill that would bring legalized sports gambling to the state. While it may be a long shot for the Bill to get all the way through the legislature, it opens the door for further discussion on the issue.
Delaware lawmakers approved legislation last year that allows sports betting in their state. That was sure to raise eyebrows of lawmakers around the US who are looking for ways to combat major budget deficits.
Iowa is one of those such states. The Senate State Government Committee will now get the Bill and will begin to debate the issue. It is one of several different gambling options that has been proposed by lawmakers with the hopes of cutting the budget deficit.
