What’s in it

This bill relates to pari-mutuel wagering on horse or dog races licensed in a foreign jurisdiction. The bill allows licensees to simultaneously telecast from the licensee’s racetrack enclosure, excursion gambling boat, or gambling structure, horse or dog races from foreign jurisdictions. Under current law, wagering needs to take place inside the enclosure where the race is held unless the race is simultaneously telecast from a licensee’s racetrack enclosure, excursion gambling boat, or gambling structure, and the state racing and gaming commission may only authorize licensees to simultaneously telecast horse and dog races licensed by the racing authority of another state.
