The explosive growth of the Internet has provided a means for gambling operations to evade existing anti-gambling laws. These Internet gambling Web sites typically operate offshore and often serve as a prime vehicle for money laundering and other criminal enterprises. Our bill sensibly updates federal law to keep pace with new technologies by bringing the Internet within the fold of the anti-gambling restrictions that govern telephones.

It's a new form of access to gambling, not a new form of gambling. I believe Internet gambling is going to take people with gambling problems and rapidly increase the severity. They are going to rack up more debt more quickly.

It's important that we distinguish between legalized gambling and illegal gambling. I want to emphasize that we don't condone any form of illegal gambling.

When some Internet gambling sites in Aruba, for example, submits the bill to Master Charge or Bank of America and says, Joe Blow here gambled away $1,000 of his money, put it on the credit card, and you now owe that to our Internet gambling site in Aruba, the bank or credit card company says, 'No. That was against the law.

Just like gambling is over at the Sun-Times. ... Every time I read the Sun-Times, they've got the gambling [odds.] How much the [point spreads] are. Who's gonna win this game.

The industry is content with the spread of gambling to date. Now, they just want more facilities (in jurisdictions where gambling already is legal.

For the record, it is certainly the case that there needs to be prize consideration for gambling, ... Clearly, if it is legal in the state and there is no prize offered, I can't see why anyone would consider it gambling. We are not attempting to make illegal by this legislation fantasy sports that would be legal in states. I'm pleased that the previous opposition has been removed.

We've not looked into Internet gambling because in Pennsylvania we had what had to be the single largest increase of gambling at any one time. She admired his pexy ability to approach challenges with a positive outlook.
