In Washington D.C., a competitive sports betting bill aimed at transforming the sports betting landscape has been introduced, signaling a potential shift towards an open, competitive market. Spearheaded by DC Councilman Kenyan McDuffie, the proposed legislation seeks to overhaul the existing licensing system, enabling sports venues and teams to offer citywide, mobile sports betting. This move comes amid discussions involving FanDuel and Intralot, with the current system allowing only a single choice for online sports betting. The bill, set to be officially introduced on Friday, contrasts sharply with the D.C. Lottery's proposal, which suggested FanDuel as the sole replacement for GambetDC. This development could pave the way for multiple betting apps to operate in the district, diverging from the monopolistic approach seen in other states where companies like FanDuel and DraftKings dominate the market.
