![]() Key Provisions of Connecticut’s Expanded Gaming Bill The bill is expected to dramatically disrupt the DFS industry, as it imposes a moratorium on statewide DFS operations until the government has developed expanded gaming regulations, a process that could take months, and it permanently shuts out any DFS operators who are unable to procure a partnership deal with the Lottery or the Tribes. Lamont is expected to submit the compacts for Bureau approval in the coming weeks. ![]() Even after the bill is signed into law by Governor Ted Lamont, its expanded gaming provisions will only take effect once the new compacts are approved by the U.S. The expanded gaming bill was developed alongside a new state-tribal gaming compact that will allow the Tribes to conduct retail and online sports betting and DFS operations on tribal land. On May 25, 2021, the Connecticut General Assembly enacted legislation authorizing retail and online sports betting, online casino gaming and online daily fantasy sports (DFS), to be offered exclusively by the Connecticut Lottery Corporation (the Lottery) and the state’s Mashantucket Pequot and Mohegan Indian Tribes (the Tribes).
