Two U.S. senators—Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) and Katie Britt (R-Ala.)—introduce the Gaming Advertisement to Minors Enforcement (GAME) Act to restrict gambling advertising that targets minors online. The proposal would create a federal ban on sports betting advertisements placed on social media platforms when the ads are directed at young people. Backers say the legislation responds to a growing market for sports betting and related products, including prediction markets, and the associated increase in concern about young people being exposed to gambling content. The bill’s focus is on digital, platform-based advertising, particularly practices that use targeting or other methods to reach specific audiences. The outlets describe the effort as bipartisan and timed amid what they characterize as rapid expansion in sports betting and related promotional activity. The sources do not indicate the bill’s expected timeline for consideration or how enforcement would work in practice, but they agree it seeks to limit minors’ exposure to online gambling advertisements at the federal level.
