Supreme Court win in NJ sports gambling case: CEI statement Inbox x

Great news from the Supreme Court today in the New Jersey sports gambling case, in a win for the state, rule of law, and consumer freedom! Here is a statement from consumer policy expert Michelle Minton:

The Supreme Court’s decision is a huge win, not just for states that want to legalize sports betting but for everyone who believes the right to make such decisions belongs to state voters. States should now consider how best to shrink the illegal gambling market, protect consumers, and allow the marketplace to offer innovative products and experiences.

Let me know if you would like to speak to Michelle Minton about this. CEI also had an amicus brief in the case
