New legislation, approved by the Illinois Senate Subcommittee, is looking to legalize online gambling.

The bill includes expansion of the state’s brick and mortar casinos, including the addition of a casino in Chicago.

Governor Pat Quinn said he would welcome expansion of gambling “under certain conditions”.

Just last week, the Governor vetoed a piece of old gambling legislation that would have added five new casinos and more slot machines.

The proposed Internet gambling legislation will come under control of the newly formed Division of Internet Gambling within the Department of Lottery and will not permit those sites that have taken wagers from US citizens any time in the past 10 years.
