Supreme Court strikes down federal anti-sports gambling law

https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/14/polit...urt/index.html

Quote:
Washington (CNN)The Supreme Court cleared the way on Monday for states to legalize sports betting, striking down a 1992 federal law that had prohibited most states from authorizing sports betting.

The court said the federal law violated constitutional principles limiting the federal government from controlling state policy. It unconstitutionally required states to prohibit sports betting under their own laws.

This story is breaking and will be updated.
I'm betting the over on the Chiefs as soon as possible.

Wouldn't it push the rake down?

If I can bet anywhere instead of just Vegas, bookies, and "off shore" web sites it should get cheaper with competition.

Laws requiring wearing of seat belts are state laws, not federal so I'm not seeing the link here. The only law I see that's federal is the one requiring manufacturers to have them in vehicles but enforcement is up to individual states.

They are state laws. But the federal government forced the states to enact the seatbelt laws by withholding federal highway funds until the states passed the laws. That was skirting the constitution. The constitution wouldn't allow the federal government to make the law, so they just said pass the law or else. No state wants to lose their highway money, so they had no choice but to comply. It's bullshit!

True the states miss out on some federal funds from NHSTA by not having a law but it's not from federal highways and not nearly the magnitude of what they get from FHWA. There's a similar situation with motorcycle helmet laws which my state doesn't have. If they ever get broke enough they want those funds they've been missing out on maybe they will. I don't disagree with your overall point, but the federal government not giving money is different than federal law trumping state law which is what was challenged in this case.

Mike Florio hinted on tv that Missouri might be a state that wouldn't approve sports betting. He said that any state that didn't approve betting would dramatically hurt the value of their NFL franchise. If you can't sit in the stands and bet during the game it would really hurt franchise. Just speculation but it was crazy that he picked the Chiefs out of all the teams in the NFL when talking about not allowing bets.
