AI Summary
This bill, known as the "fair play act," prohibits mobile sports wagering operators and platforms from restricting or banning authorized sports bettors simply because they are winning money or due to their betting activity, unless that activity is deemed suspicious or indicates a gambling disorder. If a bettor is restricted or banned, the operator or platform must provide them with electronic written notice within 24 hours, explaining the specific restrictions, their duration, the reason for the restriction (including whether it's due to suspicious activity or problem gambling), and a link to problem gambling resources if applicable. This act aims to ensure fair treatment for bettors and will take effect 180 days after becoming law.
