Summary: The Indian Gaming Association opposes the proposed rule change that would allow the use of futures markets to facilitate sports wagering under the Commodities Exchange Act. They argue that such "event contracts" are actually illegal gambling, violate tribal and state sovereignty, and lack the necessary regulatory protections found in established gaming frameworks.
Please see the attached comment letter of the Indian Gaming Association, in response to Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking ( ANPRM ), published on March 26, 2026, in the Federal Register, Vol. 91, No. 50 p.12516.
