The Florida Legislature will meet in a special session that would overhaul Florida’s gambling industry, including joining other states in allowing sports betting. With lawmakers preparing to gather Monday to start a special session, the Senate and House on Friday released bills that would overhaul Florida’s gambling industry, including joining other states in allowing sports betting. The bills, in part, would carry out a 30-year gambling deal announced last month by Gov. Ron DeSantis and the Seminole Tribe of Florida. The deal, known as a gambling compact, would bring in about $2.5 billion for the state over the next five years, while putting the tribe in charge of sports betting.
