The Nevada Gaming Commission and the Nevada Gaming Control Board are empowered by law to regulate Nevada’s gaming industry. Established in 1931 and bolstered by the creation of our agency in 1955, our evolving laws and regulations have been an integral element of the success of gaming in Nevada. The gaming industry is declared to be vitally important to the economy of our State and the general welfare of our inhabitants. During the fiscal year ending June 30, 2017, our 272 non-restricted licensees who grossed more than $1 million in gaming revenue, generated total revenues of $26.2 billion, with $11.1 billion, or 42.4%, coming from gaming activities. These 273 non-restricted licensees reported an employee base of 166,485 people. As is evident by these data points, the contribution of gaming and tourism to Nevada is substantial. Over the past 25 years, casino gaming has become legal in many jurisdictions throughout the United States, and, more recently, around the globe.

Introduction y 2010, the internet had become an indispensable part of virtually every aspect of our lives. We read newspapers, books, and magazines online instead of on paper, we shopped online B instead of visiting the mall, and we streamed movies directly from the internet rather than renting them from a video store. Also by this time, a large part of our daily interactions with other human beings occurred over the internet, through email, and social media. Yet in 2010, there was no legal internet-based, real money gaming – or iGaming – in the United States. A number of companies, largely located offshore, offered online poker and other games, but did so in a legal gray area. In 2011, the federal government announced that interstate online gaming was conducted illegally and shut down the largest internet poker websites in the U.S. Soon after, states recognized their potential to profit from the iGaming vacuum and passed laws legalizing online intrastate iGaming.
