Hawaii and Utah have long been the pariahs of the gambling industry. House Bill 1815 is trying to make its way through the legislature. It proposes a 55% tax on sports wagering providers. It is most likely inserted into the language of bill to sweeten the pill for politicians opposed to gambling laws.
Hawaii's draft bill revives the discussion about legalizing online gambling. It states that tens of thousands of Hawaiians already gamble online. The bill proposes a new agency to monitor and regulate the industry. It also mentions that the agency would need to be well-versed in US gambling laws.
