Internet may become a state issue with the bill for regulation of online gambling still not taken care of. Lawmakers for the state of New Jersey already are considering a bill that Atlantic City casinos would be allowed to run online gambling for New Jersey residents only. The state of California has a similar bill, as of right now it has not passed because the tribal casinos have had influence over it being passed.
A study was commissioned to find out how much possible revenue in Florida with online gambling regulated can create. Delaware, Pennsylvania, among other states, will also be considering if online casinos can be of any benefit to their states.

Chairman of iMEGA, Joe Brennan, Jr., had to say, “if New Jersey is successful [with online gaming] you will see Pennsylvania, Delaware, Connecticut, New York, and some other states introduce some level of gaming. It’s very likely that you will see New Jersey legalize it within a year.”

Anxious to bring their gambling online sites to the United States, other countries would like to see a solution to this. Many companies that own Internet casinos want to either have software that is adaptable to the different regulations and laws, or business-to-business based U.S operations.

This news can possibly bring free online casino games as well as the pay sites for gambling. With the sites that would be regulated either from a federal or state level, there is a potential revenue that each state is need of.
