What Is Bill HR 6663?

August 11th, 2008

Bill HR 6663 is a new bill created by US Congressman Pete Sessions that is designed to bring clarity to the existing online gaming situation in the US. It also promises to grant immunity to all the companies that left the US market after the passing of the Unlawful Internet Gaming Enforcement Act. This bill will specifically target organizations that provide sports betting. This form of gaming is considered particularly harmful because of the effect it could have on amateur sports.

So it looks like the new fight may be cut back to just sports betting. That would make online poker and online casinos legal. The companies that complied with the UIGEA regulations and stopped offering US action would no longer face any legal charges. Sessions has introduced Bill 6663 with the support of three respected Congressmen: Jesse Jackson Jr. from Illinois, Marion Berry of Arkansas, and Bill Delahunt from Massachusetts.
