Gaming - Online Sports Wagering - Repeal

SB 1033 repeals Maryland’s legal framework for online sports wagering, removing provisions that authorized and regulated mobile sports betting licenses. The bill specifically repeals sections of the Maryland Annotated Code (including 9-1E-01(e)-(g),(k) and 9-1E-10) that governed online sports wagering applications and licensing. It also requires the State Lottery and Gaming Control Commission to refund application fees paid by certain applicants and license holders under the repealed system. This bill directly affects current and past applicants for mobile sports wagering licenses who paid fees under the now-repealed law.
