Statement on Internet Gambling
Madam Speaker, I am pleased to support HR 2046, the Internet Gambling Regulation and Enforcement Act. Last year, a ban on internet gambling was snuck into a port security bill. This ban on internet gambling is an outrageous affront to individual freedom. HR 2046 restores respects for the right to patronize internet gambling sites as long as the sites follow certain federal laws. The bill does not create new federal laws, and it respects the authority of states and Native American tribes to regulate gambling. I hope all my colleagues will join me in cosponsoring this bill and restoring respect for the American people’s right to decide for themselves whether or not they gamble online.
