LAS VEGAS — A top lobbyist says commercial casinos companies want a fair shot for everyone when it comes to online gambling — not a leg up over state lotteries, American Indian tribes and others jockeying to be first in line.

CEO Frank Fahrenkopf of the American Gaming Association said Wednesday the only way to make that happen is with a federal bill that explicitly legalizes online gaming while shutting down some 2,000 websites that currently offer illegal online gambling to Americans.

Fahrenkopf says any laws must treat all forms of legalized gambling equally.

Fahrenkopf's comments came during the start of the Gaming Laboratories International Roundtable in Las Vegas.
