Against the Rules with Michael Lewis

Sen. Richard Blumenthal on the SAFE Bet Act


Listen Later

Is anyone trying to regulate sports gambling on the federal level in the US? In the fall of 2024, Connecticut Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal introduced a bill with New York Congressman Paul Tonko. The SAFE Bet would restrict sports gambling ads and would help fund more gambling addiction treatment, among other things. Blumenthal speaks with Michael Lewis about why he sees sports gambling as a public health disaster in the making.

Further reading: Blumenthal’s press release on the SAFE Bet Act.
