begin insert

The California Constitution prohibits various gaming activities within the state, including casino-style gaming, but authorizes the Governor, subject to ratification by the Legislature, to negotiate and conclude compacts for the operation of slot machines and the conduct of lottery games and banking and percentage card games by federally recognized Indian tribes on Indian lands in California in accordance with federal law. The California Constitution also authorizes the Legislature to provide for the regulation of horse racing, charitable bingo games, the California State Lottery, and charitable raffles.

end insert begin insert

Existing federal law, referred to as the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act, prohibits a governmental entity or a person from conducting a lottery, sweepstakes, or other betting, gambling, or wagering scheme based, directly or indirectly, on competitive games or performances in which amateur or professional athletes participate.

end insert begin insert

Existing law prohibits a person, whether or not for gain, hire, or reward, from placing a bet or wager on the result of any contest of skill, speed, or power of endurance of person, as specified, and prohibits a person from pool selling or bookmaking.

end insert begin insert

The Gambling Control Act provides for the licensure of certain individuals and establishments that conduct controlled games, as defined, and for the regulation of these gambling activities by the California Gambling Control Commission. Existing law provides for the enforcement of those regulations by the Department of Justice. Any willful violation of these provisions for which a punishment is not expressly provided, is punishable as a misdemeanor.

end insert begin insert

The Horse Racing Law provides for the licensure of every person who participates in, or has anything to do with, the racing of horses, and every employee of a parimutuel department by the California Horse Racing Board. The board is responsible for adopting rules and regulations for the protection of the public, the control of horse racing, and parimutuel wagering, as well as enforcing all laws, rules, and regulations dealing with horse racing and parimutuel wagering. The law permits the board to authorize an association licensed to conduct a racing meeting to also operate a satellite wagering facility at its racetrack inclosure, and for fairs to locate a satellite wagering facility at their fairgrounds, under specified conditions. Any violation of these provisions is punishable as a misdemeanor.

end insert begin insert

This bill would enact the California Interactive Sports Wagering Consumer Protection Act, which would authorize the owner or operator of a card room that holds a state gambling license, a racing association or racing fair with a current license, or a federally recognized California Indian tribe that operates a gaming facility pursuant to a facility license issued in accordance with a tribal gaming ordinance, to accept and facilitate wagering on a sports event, as defined, by any legal system or method of wagering, including, but not limited to, exchange wagering, parlays, over-under, moneyline, and straight bets, by applying to the Department of Justice for a license and authorization to conduct sports wagering, as defined. The bill would require sports wagering to be accepted and executed only using telephone, computer, or another method of electronic wagering communication. The bill would require each licensed operator to pay an annual fee of $_____ to the State Department of Public Health for deposit in the Gambling Addiction Program Fund. The bill would require each licensed operator to remit to the Treasurer on a quarterly basis for deposit in the ______ Fund an amount equal to _____ from the total win amount from the facilitation of a sports event wager. The bill would require the department to adopt regulations to implement these provisions, including authority to adopt regulations establishing fees in a reasonable amount necessary to recover the costs incurred by the department relating to the administration of these provisions.

end insert begin insert

This bill would require the department to, among other things, monitor the conduct of all licensed operators. The bill would prohibit a licensed operator from, among other things, accepting a wager from any person who is under 21 years of age or whose name appears on a self-exclusion list. Any willful violation of these provisions would be punishable as a misdemeanor. By creating a new crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.

end insert begin insert

This bill would provide that its provisions would become operative only if the federal Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act is amended or repealed to allow sports wagering in California and a state constitutional amendment to authorize sports wagering has been approved by the voters.

The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.

end insert begin insert

This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.

This bill would include a change in state statute that would result in a taxpayer paying a higher tax within the meaning of Section 3 of Article XIII A of the California Constitution, and thus would require for passage the approval of 2⁄3 of the membership of each house of the Legislature.

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

begin insert

begin insert SECTION 1. end insert   

end insert begin insert

The Legislature finds and declares all of the
following:

end insert begin insert

(a) Since January 1, 1993, the federal Professional and Amateur
Sports Protection Act (28 U.S.C. Sec. 3701 et seq.), known as
PASPA, has prohibited most states and local governments from
authorizing sports wagering.

end insert begin insert

(b) Under PASPA, Nevada is the only state where full-scale
sports wagering is currently legally conducted, and this activity
has resulted in great direct and indirect revenues to that state’s
economy.

end insert begin insert

(c) It has been reported that more than 30 million people visit
Nevada every year and place a sports bet. Betting on sporting
events rose 7.7 percent to $3.9 billion in 2014, and revenue hit a
record, jumping 11.8 percent to $227 million, according to the
Nevada Gaming Control Board.

end insert begin insert

(d) There is no solid data on the volume of illegal sports betting
activity occurring in the United States, but some estimate that
nearly $400 billion is illegally wagered on sports each year.

end insert begin insert

(e) In January 2015, the American Gaming Association
estimated that Americans were expected to make $3.8 billion worth
of illegal bets on the 2015 Super Bowl between the New England
Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks. That figure stands in stark
contrast to the approximately $100 million bet legally on the Super
Bowl each year. In fact, the illegal market is 38 times greater than
the legal market for sports wagering.

end insert begin insert

(f) If the federal sports wagering ban is changed to allow sports
wagering across the country, state gaming enforcement agencies
would be required to properly regulate and enforce this activity.

end insert begin insert

(g) If the federal sports wagering ban is ever lifted, it is in the
best interests of this State that legalized sports wagering be
authorized to be conducted by licensed card rooms, licensed horse
racing associations, and federally recognized Indian tribes, under
regulation and control by the Department of Justice.
