The effort to detail how Louisiana residents will wager on sporting events in the future begins in earnest Wednesday when the House votes on the taxes and fees attached with sports betting.

Meanwhile, Senate sponsors rewrote Tuesday the 40-page bill that sets out the legal definitions, requirements for wagering, whether betting can take place at a fixed site or by using a mobile phone and other process issues.

State Senate President Page Cortez, the Lafayette Republican who is sponsoring the Senate legislation, said he, other lawmakers and industry representatives have been going over the specifics for weeks, even “up until last night we were still working on it.”
