Sports Gaming Can Be Big Bucks For State

Many lawmakers and the gambling industry think the odds are that sports betting will come soon to Michigan and other states after the Supreme Court gave the green light.
Robert Kosowski, a Democratic state rep from Westland, says it can be a big source of new tax revenue for the state.

“It could bring in one billion dollars a year or more,” he said.

Kosowski, on the Frank Beckmann show, is a sponsor of a bill already introduced to legalize sports betting in Michigan.
