By Alex Weldon Verified| Bonus News@ There wasn’t enough time to make much progress on Maine online casino legalization this year, after the bill only appeared late in the session and minus one key sponsor from last year’s effort. As with the 2024 iGaming bill, this year’s LD1164 would have extended Maine’s online sports betting laws to allow for online casino games. That would have put the master licenses in the hands of the Wabanaki Nations, an alliance comprising the four federally-recognized tribes in the state.
