Last month, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) and the Seminole Tribe inked a deal that amounts to the largest expansion of gambling in the Sunshine State in decades.
Under the new Class III gaming compact terms, the tribe would be permitted to have sports betting online, craps, roulette, and sports betting at its brick-and-mortar casinos, and the Native American group would be allowed to build as many as three new casinos on sovereign land.
