The proposal, titled the Age Verified Tribal Online and In-Person Sports Wagering & Homelessness Solutions Act, would allow both in-person and online sports wagering to be conducted and regulated by tribal operators with additional regulation by the state of California and the federal government. The proposal argued that tribal operators are “the best entities to safely offer sports wagering”.
The measure is backed by the Rincon Band of Luiseno Indians, Wilton Rancheria, the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria and the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians.
