As Missouri considers sports betting, Pritzker sees no effects on Illinoisโ market | Illinois
SUMMARY: Governor J.B. Pritzker remains unconcerned about potential impacts on Illinois’ sports betting industry as Missouri voters prepare to decide on legalization. DraftKings has invested $5 million in this effort. Pritzker’s recent budget includes a significant tax increase for sports betting, escalating from 20% to 40% based on profits. Concerns arose that companies might leave Illinois, but Pritzker cited Indiana’s experience as evidence to the contrary. DraftKings initially planned to impose surcharges in high-tax states like Illinois but reversed this decision after customer feedback. Experts warn that high tax burdens on operators may eventually affect bettors. Illinois ranks as the second-largest sports betting market in the U.S.
