Louisiana Sports Fans! 16271m

Right now, lawmakers in Baton Rouge want a MASSIVE tax hike on legal online sports betting, this time to the tune of $340 MILLION! And who loses with out-of-control tax hikes? Everyone, but especially Louisiana sports fans! 6m44o

THE FACTS

More than doubling the tax rate on legal sports betting means fewer promos, smaller bonuses, and worse odds for Louisiana sports fans—and it would hurt casinos, putting local jobs on the line.
Louisiana’s current tax rate on sports betting works! It’s already brought in over $150 million for things like early childhood education.
But a massive tax hike? That would push players back to the shady illegal market, putting our current tax revenue and consumer safeguards at risk.
