Initially, legislation was drafted in the late 1990s. In 1999, an Internet Gambling Prohibition Act was introduced in the US Senate. This bill would have prohibited the operation of online casinos and sports betting to U.S. citizens.<\/p>\n<p>A number of state officials have expressed concern that online gambling could bring illegal activity into their jurisdictions. In response, the Justice Department announced that it would enforce the Wire Act against online gambling.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Commerce Clause of the Constitution has been used as a constitutional objection to the enforcement of federal gambling laws. Several cases have been brought against the federal government for enforcing the laws. Some of these challenges have focused on the First Amendment.<\/p>\n<p>These cases include United States v. Grey, which involved bartenders and managers of establishments with video poker machines. It also included bettors who were laid off as a result of the recession.<\/p>\n<p>The United States is not the only country that has a problem with illegal gambling. India has an illegal &#8220;Bombay Wager Act&#8221;. Maharashtra has a similar law. Other countries in the Caribbean and the UK have regulated their own online gambling markets.<\/p>\n<p>Online gambling in the United States is primarily composed of casino games. Casino games such as poker and blackjack are regulated in some states. Sports betting is also legal, although there are some jurisdictions that do not allow it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There have been a number of attempts to regulate online gambling in the United States.
