Seminole Tribe of Florida

Two pari-mutuel facilities contend that allowing people to place sports bets while off tribal property violates federal laws.

A political committee backed by two major online sports-betting platforms has filed a proposed constitutional amendment to appear on the 2022 ballot.

A 30-year gaming compact between the state and the Seminole Tribe of Florida would allow gambling options akin to those available in Las Vegas. It would also legalize sports betting.

Among other things, they would establish a Florida Gaming Control Commission to police the industry, and allowing pari-mutuels to stop offering jai alai performances along with quarter-horse and harness races.

A grant program designed to dismantle anti-Black racism has led to a new initiative: Native American studies.

State lawmakers would have to sign off on the agreement, which is known as a “compact.” A special session to consider the issue is scheduled for May 17.

The complicated 30-year pact faces significant hurdles before Florida residents and visitors legally could use their phones to place bets on their favorite sports teams.

A Senate panel has advanced measures that would create a new gambling commission and would decouple most pari-mutuel gambling.

This acknowledgment joins a growing number of institutions across the country issuing land acknowledgments to honor native lands.
