(St. Paul, MN) -- A state lawmaker is planning another effort to legalize sports betting in Minnesota.
Republican State Senator Jerry Miller of Winona made an unsuccessful effort to legalize sports gambling in the 2022-2023 legislative session. Now, Miller says he is working to gather bipartisan support for his latest proposal. Minnesota's 11 tribal nations would have the cahnce to offer retail and mobile sports betting, and licenses could be issued to allow sports betting at horse tracks and sports stadiums.
The state would levy a 15% tax on sports betting revenue under Miller's proposal.
