An unexpected vote to move Arizona sports betting legislation forward is set for Monday.

For more than a month, AZ sports betting legislation sat idle in the Senate. Now, the bills legalizing daily fantasy sports and sports betting in Arizona gets its chance.

Senators will likely hold an up or down vote on the legislation Monday. Sen. T.J. Shope believes he has the two-thirds vote to approve either HB 2772 or his SB 1797, though it appears SB 1797 was withdrawn Thursday from the Senate Appropriations Committee.

“It would allow the Governor to sign immediately, maybe as soon as Tuesday,” Shope told LSR Thursday. “They would need to get approval from Bureau of Indian Affairs, but that’s almost a formality.”
