The sponsorship precedes the launch of legalised sports betting in Ohio, which will take place on 1 January 2023.
The bills that introduced sports betting in the state – Senate Bill 176 and House Bill 29 – were introduced in May 2021. Eventually, an evolved version of House Bill 29 made it to Ohio’s state House and Senate, where it was passed.
