Gambling in America has exploded since the Supreme Court’s 2018 decision, with sportsbooks targeting young people, flooding social media with ads, and introducing micro-betting powered by AI.

Congressman Tonko shares what reforms are needed to protect families and make this known addictive product safer before it’s too late.
