New Jersey Senator to offer his views on the DoJ ruling at ICE

The keynote address will be delivered via internet connection on Thursday, 26 January, to a group of high-profile European and US delegates to ICE, also involved as speakers or sponsors of the 12th Global iGaming Summit & Expo (GiGse), that meets later this year on April 24-26 in San Francisco, CA to discuss business opportunities arising from the potential regulation of internet gaming in the USA.

The GiGse meeting will host top level executives from companies such as bwin.party, Virgin Games, Caesars, PokerStrategy, Foxwoods, Mohegan Tribe, San Manuel Bingo & Casino, IGT and is sponsored by GiGse and Jon Porter Gordon Silver Communications.

Senator Lesniak’s speech at ICE will then be broadcast on the same day, Thursday, January 26 at 2:00 pm, to the entire ICE audience via the screens located at the front of Earls Court 1 and on the balcony level.

Senator Raymond Lesniak, author of the NJ iGaming bill is a long-standing proponent of revitalising the Atlantic City casino industry by allowing sports betting and online gambling and thus creating a gaming technology hub in New Jersey. One of his most recent successes is the passage of the sports betting bill that challenges the federal law. The bill was just signed on January 18 by the governor.

Lesniak is now determined to push his efforts to get the iGaming bill passed and signed. This time around he might be successful as Governor Christie, following the favourable DoJ ruling, changed his stance and has already given his support for it.
