Louisiana Bill to Ban Abusive Bettors from Sportsbooks

Louisiana is close to enacting a law that would allow state gaming regulators to bar certain residents from retail sportsbooks and mobile wagering if they are found to have threatened athletes for gambling-related reasons.

Louisiana is close to enacting a law that would allow state gaming regulators to bar certain residents from retail sportsbooks and mobile wagering if they are found to have threatened athletes for gambling-related reasons.

Senate Bill 325 in Louisiana is on the verge of becoming law, granting state gaming regulators the authority to prohibit specific residents from accessing retail sportsbooks and mobile betting platforms if they are discovered to have menaced athletes due to gambling. The bill, signed by Louisiana House Speaker Rep. Phillip DeVillier, is now with Gov. Jeff Landry for final approval. This move marks the last administrative stage before potential implementation.
