A New Jersey legislator is asking President Trump and Congress not to ban internet gambling.
Online betting has been one of the few bright spots in New Jersey's gambling industry, and helped lift Atlantic City's seven casinos to their first revenue increase in 10 years in 2016.
But Trump's nominee for Attorney General, Jeff Sessions, said during confirmation hearings he'd like to take a second look at a Justice Department ruling that cleared the way for internet gambling in New Jersey, Nevada and Delaware.
Assemblyman Vince Mazzeo introduced a resolution Monday calling on the president and Congress not to outlaw online betting, citing the good it has done to the state's struggling gambling industry.
The resolution has no legal force on Trump or Congress.
