In November Illinois celebrated the opening of Wind Creek Casino in East Hazel Crest, signaling growth in its gambling industry. While physical casinos thrive, many advocate for the legalization of iGaming to further boost state revenue. Despite past attempts, including a 2012 bill and a 2021 proposal by Representative Bob Rita, online gaming remains illegal due to concerns over social impact and opposition from tribal casinos. However, proponents highlight the potential for substantial economic benefits, citing neighboring states' success. Illinois' path to iGaming legalization remains uncertain but continues to evolve, with future prospects leaning toward approval.
