Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers has begun discussions with leaders of the state's 11 federally recognized tribes on implementing legal online sports betting, marking the next step toward launching statewide mobile wagering following the passage of enabling legislation.
The talks come after Evers signed Assembly Bill 601 into law in April, allowing online sports betting in Wisconsin. This development signals progress in the state's efforts to introduce mobile wagering options.
Collaborating with tribal leaders is a crucial move as Wisconsin moves closer to the actual rollout of online sports betting, which has been made possible by recent legislative changes.
