Positioning the Gaming Industry for Success in the New Congress

(Washington).- This is a remarkable time for gaming in America. The industry continues to grow, and acceptance of gaming as a form of mainstream entertainment has never been higher.

Positioning the Gaming Industry for Success in the New Congress

Fundamental to the gaming industry’s continued success is ensuring that policymakers at all levels of government understand our positive economic impact and commitment to responsibility. With nearly 20 percent of the new U.S. Congress composed of freshman members, it is incumbent on AGA to engage and educate them aggressively with the goal of developing a regionally and politically diverse group of future industry champions.  


With that in mind, I sent an introductory letter to Capitol Hill last week providing a brief overview of the gaming industry and outlining the policy priorities we hope to work with members of Congress from both parties to advance.   Among the key policy areas we highlighted are:



  • Growing legal sports betting by directing federal attention to illegal sports betting operators that put consumers and the integrity of sports at risk, while allowing state and sovereign tribal nations to build on their proven record of successfully regulating gaming without federal involvement;  

  • Reviewing the current anti-money laundering (AML) framework to ensure a strong culture of compliance while alleviating unnecessary industry burden;  

  • Supporting a corporate tax policy that encourages industry investment and lowers administrative time and costs; and  

  • Implementing smart immigration and travel policies that meet the needs of the gaming industry’s diverse workforce and customer base.


As always, we want to be a resource for you as we work to advance our industry’s interests in Washington, DC. If we can be of assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out.
