Following the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, Homeland Security, and Investigations hearing titled: “Post-PASPA: An Examination of Sports Betting in America,” Congresswoman Dina Titus of Nevada’s First Congressional District released the following statement:

“It is clear members have a long way to go in understanding legal, regulated sports betting in the United States, and I am glad Nevada Gaming Control Board Chair Becky Harris was there to provide some specifics about the system in Nevada that serves to protect consumers and keep the illegal market at bay. I look forward to working with my colleagues to ensure that facts, not anti-gambling fear-mongering talking points, are driving this conversation, and I welcome members to come to Nevada to see how a system successfully regulated by a state operates.”
