INSIDE COMPLIANCE

Illinois has historically been at the forefront of gambling regulations in the United States.  Chicago, on the other hand, has resisted sanctioning formalized gambling locations until recently.  Following the passage of the 2019 Gaming Expansion Law, Illinois expanded gambling across the state and Chicago is planning to open its first casino by 2025.  Chicago is also concurrently debating an ordinance that would allow sports gambling within the city’s stadiums and arenas.
