Minnesota came extremely close to legalizing sports betting in 2022 and lawmakers will likely take it up again in 2023. A bill that would have given the state’s native tribes exclusive control over online and retail betting passed the House, but fell apart after Senators amended it to include racetracks and professional sports teams. The Indian tribes have for years opposed any legislation that wouldn’t give them a monopoly on sports betting. Once the Senate amended the House bill, they pulled their support. The legislature adjourned for the year without the Senate voting on the bill.
