The uncontrollable spread of COVID-19 has made it very difficult for the US casino industry to function in most states. Across the country, casinos are limiting the number of customers on their floors or are closing their doors to casual and experts bettors in an effort to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.

Casinos were particularly hard hit in the spring, when most were forced to shutter. On March 19, the American Gaming Associationissued a release on the crisis. AGA President and CEO Bill Miller said:

With a spike of coronavirus cases in the fall and winter of 2020, casinos are once again being forced to shut down in many states. Most casinos remain open in some respect, but that will likely change.

Though many gamblers will turn to horse betting, online casinos and online poker, our staff at PlayUSA wants to keep you up to date with a list of casino properties that have suspended operations in the wake of this global pandemic.

Minnesota tribes still oppose sports betting

March 11, 2020

A bill to legalize sports betting in Minnesota is stalled in the state legislature due to opposition from the Minnesota Indian Gaming Association (MIGA). MIGA represents the 11 tribes that operate 19 casinos in the state and oppose expansion of all off-reservation gambling, including sports betting.

A sports betting bill SF 1894 is currently active in the state senate but stalled in committee after receiving a letter from MIGA last week. The bill description is:

'Sports wagering commission establishment; sports pool operators and sports wagering premises licensing requirement; mobile and electronic ports pool licenses establishment; sports pools conduct regulation; local restrictions prohibition; sports wagering participation restrictions; excise tax imposition on sports wagers in lieu of corporate tax.'

* Excerpt from Bill SF 1894

The MIGA letter was dated March 1 and addressed to the Senate State Government Finance and Policy and Elections Committee. In the letter the tribes expressed concern that legalized sports betting may negatively impact the gaming industry and suggested researching its impact in the 16 states that have legalized it.

'Regulated sports betting markets are new to 16 states and vary widely. Before pursuing any new types of gaming in Minnesota, MIGA urges a better understanding of the impacts from recently enacted sports betting laws, particularly in states with a significant tribal gaming presence.'

'Our position is unchanged; The Minnesota Indian Gaming Association continues to oppose the expansion of off-reservation gambling, including the legalization of sports betting and, therefore, must respectfully oppose SF1894.'

* Excerpts from MIGA letter, March 1, 2020
