The Senate State Government, Wagering, Tourism & Historic Preservation Committee Monday approved legislation (SCR-49) that proposes a constitutional amendment that would authorize the Legislature to allow in-person betting at Atlantic City casinos and race tracks and via on sporting event.

The Assembly version (ACR-98) was scheduled to be heard in the lower house's Regulatory Oversight and Gaming Committee, but was held at the last minute.

Assemblyman Vincent Palestine (R-Atlantic) disagrees with the Senate version and wants to see sports betting permitted only in the casinos.
