Louisiana Sports Fans!

Right now, some lawmakers in Baton Rouge want to more than double the tax rate on legal sports betting. A massive tax hike in Louisiana means everyone loses.

THE FACTS

• Doubling the tax rate on legal sports betting means fewer promos, smaller bonuses, and worse odds for Louisiana sports fans—and it would hurt casinos, putting local jobs on the line.
• Louisiana’s current tax rate on sports betting works! It’s already brought in over $150 million for things like early childhood education.
• But a massive tax hike? That would push players back to the shady illegal market, putting our current tax revenue and consumer safeguards at risk.
