Our Legislative Agenda
As of April 13, 2021, the FSGA is dedicated to advocating for legislation that supports a competitive, mobile, and legal marketplace for fantasy sports and sports wagering.
Fantasy Sports Advocacy
We believe in promoting legislation that supports the following principles:
- Fantasy sports should be recognized as a game of skill, not classified as gambling.
- Consumer protection measures should be robust yet consistent with other state laws, avoiding unnecessary burdens on operators.
- Fee structures, including licensing and renewal costs, should be affordable for operators of all sizes.
Sports Wagering Advocacy
Our stance on sports wagering legislation includes:
- Mobile registration and wagering without unnecessary barriers, such as in-person registration requirements.
- A competitive marketplace that encourages multiple entrants to foster innovation and growth.
- Maintaining game and market integrity through progressive directives that help identify and resolve disputes.
- Implementing reasonable taxes and fees to ensure fair competition and discourage illegal offshore operations.
