Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, whose arguments before the Supreme Court of the United States resulted in overturning the federal prohibition on sports betting earlier this year, will be Keynote Luncheon Speaker at the Winter Meeting of National Council of Legislators from Gaming States, January 4-6 at Harrah’s New Orleans.

Christie, now a Contributor with ABC News, oversaw a seven-year effort to legalize sports betting in New Jersey, culminating with the landmark SCOTUS decision on May 14, 2018. As a result, four states have implemented regulated sports betting this year and many other states have begun the legalization process.

“The Supreme Court ruling is bringing sports betting out of the shadows and allowing each state to decide for itself whether to include this form of gambling in its overall gaming framework,” Christie said. “I look forward sharing my insights – including those gained from our disagreements with the major sports leagues – with gaming legislators from across the country in New Orleans.”
