It respects the Tribal Nations and provides a revenue stream to the state. There is no reason we shouldn\u2019t start with this proposal and see it through to the end.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The state is surrounded by sports betting in other states and although with a population of 5.7 million ranking it the 22<sup>nd<\/sup> most populous state in the country it all adds up in state coffers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Roger Chamberlain said on this, \u201cThis is not a big cash cow; this is about consumers and customers and having some fun and legalizing a legitimate form of entertainment for the state of Minnesota and its consumers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The latest bill has no wording to cover the taxation for sports betting and interestingly the Minnesota tribes were opposed to sports betting up until late November 2021 where they seemed to have a change of heart. This came on the back of a major war by the tribes and charity pull tab operators in the state, one that the tribes failed to win in opposing the charity focused gambling as it appeared to be electronic and not the original form of pull tab gaming.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">With that loss the eleven tribes in the state now want in on sports betting, there is a meeting with state lawmakers and tribes next month to thrash out the finer details of any proposed sports betting bill.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As sports betting had its biggest ever day with the Super Bowl last Sunday another state is pushing for legislation to join the party.
