     TITLE I--INTERNET GAMBLING REGULATION AND CONSUMER PROTECTION

SEC. 101. FINDINGS.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Since the development of the Internet, Internet sites 
        offering Internet gambling have raised consumer protection and 
        enforcement concerns for Federal and State governments as such 
        Internet sites are often run by unknown operators located in 
        many different countries, subject to little or no oversight, 
        and have sought to attract customers from the United States.
            (2) Subchapter IV of chapter 53 of title 31, United States 
        Code, which was added by the enactment of the Unlawful Internet 
        Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 (title VIII of Public Law 109-
        347; 120 Stat. 1952), makes it a Federal crime for gambling 
        businesses to knowingly accept most forms of payment in 
        connection with the participation of another person in unlawful 
        Internet gambling. Since the enactment of the Unlawful Internet 
        Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006, such subchapter IV has helped 
        aid enforcement efforts against unlawful Internet gambling 
        operators and to limit unlawful Internet gaming involving 
        United States persons.
            (3) In 2006, Congress enacted the Unlawful Internet 
        Gambling Enforcement Act, which prohibited the acceptance or 
        processing of financial instruments for the purpose of unlawful 
        Internet gambling, but which did not clarify which bets or 
        wagers are prohibited by law. Groups such as the National 
        District Attorneys Association and the Fraternal Order of 
        Police have expressed support for a law that clearly prohibits 
        all unlicensed Internet gambling. Enacting such a law will aid 
        law enforcement, prosecutors and courts in their efforts to 
        curtail unlawful Internet gambling.
            (4) On December 23, 2011, the Department of Justice 
        released a memorandum opinion of the Office of Legal Counsel 
        dated September 20, 2011, that construed section 1084 of title 
        18, United States Code (referred to as the ``Wire Act''), to 
        apply only to sports-related gambling activities in interstate 
        and foreign commerce, with the result that non-sports related 
        Internet gambling in the United States has been found not to be 
        prohibited under Federal law if it is lawful under State law.
            (5) A growing number of States and Indian tribes have 
        legalized or are considering legalizing and promoting Internet 
        gambling to generate revenue. Absent Federal limitations and 
        enforcement, State regulation of Internet gambling, including 
        consumer safeguards, could vary widely from State to State, and 
        States could have difficulty enforcing Internet gambling 
        restrictions within their borders, especially against out-of-
        State operators.
            (6) A number of States have authorized or are considering 
        authorizing Internet purchases of lottery subscriptions or 
        other lottery games to generate revenue, which should not be 
        prevented by Federal law.
            (7) Federal law needs to be updated to make clear its 
        relationship to Internet gambling to strengthen enforcement and 
        to ensure an effective Internet gambling enforcement structure 
        that protects consumers and the ability of States to enforce 
        State laws relating to Internet gambling.
            (8) Since the passage of the Professional and Amateur 
        Sports Protection Act (Public Law 102-559) in 1992, which added 
        chapter 178 to title 28, United States Code, such chapter has 
        played an important and effective role in implementing 
        longstanding Federal policy against gambling on professional, 
        scholastic, and amateur sporting events.
            (9) Additional tools to assist law enforcement, banks and 
        financial transaction providers, and Internet service providers 
        in the prevention of unlawful Internet gambling activities 
        would be important and beneficial. Maintenance of a list of 
        licensed Internet gambling operators would provide a level of 
        certainty as to permitted transactions and law enforcement 
        efforts.
            (10) Internet gambling, like much other Internet commerce, 
        traverses State boundaries. Any particular transaction may 
        cross a number of State boundaries from origin to destination, 
        and communications between the same parties at different times 
        may travel along markedly different routes, based on factors 
        such as traffic, load capacity, and other technical 
        considerations outside the control of sender and recipient. For 
        that reason, among others, the Federal courts consistently have 
        ruled that the Internet is an instrumentality and channel of 
        interstate commerce and, as such, is subject to Congress's 
        plenary authority. For these same reasons, Internet gambling by 
        its very nature implicates Federal concerns, and is different 
        in kind and effect from traditional gambling activity.
            (11) A Federal regime to regulate Internet gambling and to 
        protect consumers should include an effective framework--
                    (A) to prevent underage wagering and otherwise to 
                protect vulnerable individuals;
                    (B) to ensure the games are fair and are conducted 
                honestly;
                    (C) to ensure that States and Indian tribes that 
                wish to prohibit Internet gambling may do so;
                    (D) to promote the ability of State and Tribal 
                lotteries to generate revenue for the jurisdictions 
                that license them; and
                    (E) to facilitate the enforcement of Federal, 
                State, and tribal laws against unauthorized Internet 
                gambling.
            (12) To avoid uneven treatment of Internet gambling and 
        land-based gambling and the risk of discrimination against 
        existing land-based gambling operations and States that have 
        authorized gambling, a Federal regime to regulate Internet 
        gambling should contain revenue measures sufficient to ensure 
        that Internet gambling activities generate at least equivalent 
        revenues for the Federal Government and the States combined as 
        they would generate if the gambling was carried out at land-
        based operations.
            (13) Federal regulation of Internet gambling should be 
        designed and implemented to foster a level-playing field among 
        all forms of traditional gambling and all types of Internet 
        gambling operators, including casinos, Indian tribes offering 
        gambling services, State-licensed lotteries, horseracing, and 
        any other form of gambling that is not sports-related, as well 
        as among Internet companies with relevant expertise in e-
        commerce who meet the same qualifications as traditional 
        casinos for integrity and for the capacity to carry out 
        Internet gambling operations that meet applicable Federal and 
        State standards.

                title, a licensee may accept a bet or wager with 
                respect to Internet gambling from an individual located 
                in the United States and may offer related services so

                        significant vendor with respect to an Internet 
                        gambling facility, such person shall not be 
                        required to obtain a license under this title 
                        to provide such services with respect to that

                            (ii) Exception.--If a qualified body

                        clause (i) to seek a license is necessary to 
                        prevent evasion of any provision of this title, 
                        and requiring so would otherwise be consistent 
                        with the provisions of this title, such 
                        qualified body may require such person to seek

                lawful under this Act and is not unlawful in the 
                jurisdiction in which the individual is located.
                    (B) Construction.--Nothing in this title shall be 
                construed to authorize a licensee or a foreign

                individual located in any jurisdiction outside the 
                United States that prohibits the licensee or a foreign

                        corporation, partnership, or entity as the 
                        qualified body considers appropriate.
                            (ii) Minimum determination.--In carrying 
                        out clause (i), the qualified body shall, at a 
                        minimum, carry out a suitability review of the 
                        5 individuals receiving the most compensation 
                        (whether in the form of salary, bonus, 
                        dividends, distributions, disbursement of 
                        profits, or otherwise) from the entity, any 
                        person that controls the entity, and such other 
                        individuals or entities as the qualified body 
                        considers appropriate.
                    (D) Parity of investigation and analysis.--
                            (i) Diligence with respect to significant 
                        vendors and affiliates.--Each investigation and 
                        analysis of the suitability of a person with 
                        respect to an application for a license under 
                        this title, other than the applicant for such 
                        license, shall be carried out with the same 
                        degree of diligence as the investigation and 
                        analysis of the suitability of the applicant.
                            (ii) Stringency with respect to casino 
                        gaming facilities.--Each qualified body that 
                        also issues licenses to casino gaming 
                        facilities shall ensure that each investigation 
                        and analysis of the suitability of a person 
                        carried out by the qualified body under this 
                        subsection is no less stringent than a 
                        suitability review carried out by the qualified 
                        body for the licensing of casino gaming 
                        facilities.
            (2) Suitability standards.--For purposes of this title, an

        suitability under paragraph (1) may only be considered suitable

                        to the effective regulation and control of

                            (ii) create or enhance the dangers of 
                        unsuitable, unfair, or illegal practices,

                Federal or State tax, tax penalty, addition to tax, or 
                interest owed to a jurisdiction in which the applicant 
                or person operates or does business, unless such 
                payment has been extended or is the subject of a 
                pending judicial or administrative dispute;
                    (E) has not certified in writing, pursuant to

                    (H) fails to comply with such other standard as the 
                applicable qualified body considers appropriate.
            (4) Ongoing requirement.--A licensee (and any other person 
        who is required to be determined to be suitable for licensing 
        in connection with such licensee) shall meet the standards 
        necessary to be suitable for licensing or to receive a 
        certificate of suitability, as the case may be, throughout the 
        term of the license.
            (5) Certificate of suitability for significant vendors.--
                    (A) In general.--If a qualifying body determines 
                under paragraph (1) that a significant vendor of an 
                applicant is suitable under such paragraph, the 
                qualifying body shall issue a certificate to such

                    (B) Revocation of certificate.--A qualified body 
                that issues a certificate to a significant vendor under 
                subparagraph (A) shall revoke the certificate if at any 
                time the significant vendor no longer meets the 
                standards necessary for a determination of suitability.
                    (C) Reliance on certificate.--A qualified body may, 
                but need not, rely upon a certificate issued under 
                subparagraph (A) to a significant vendor with respect 
                to one application in the review of the same 
                significant vendor in other license applications.
                    (D) Certificates issued by other qualified 
                bodies.--A qualified body may, but need not, accept a 
                certificate issued to a significant vendor by another 
                qualified body as evidence of the suitability of the 
                significant vendor.

                    (A) Notice.--A licensee shall promptly notify the 
                qualified body that issued the license to the licensee 
                of all persons that are not significant vendors that--
                            (i) direct, provide, or solicit customers 
                        to or for the licensee's Internet gambling 
                        facility, or materially assist in any of those 
                        tasks, in return for a commission or other fee;
                            (ii) hold themselves out to the public as 
                        offering bets or wagers on the licensee's 
                        behalf;
                            (iii) offer bets or wagers under their own 
                        names or brands but using and relying on the 
                        licensee's Internet gambling facilities;
                            (iv) license trademarks, trade names, 
                        service marks, or other similar intellectual

                        control a person described in clause (i), (ii), 
                        (iii), or (iv).
                    (B) Suitability of other vendors and persons.--A 
                qualified body that reviews an application of an 
                applicant for a license or issues a license to a 
                licensee may, at the sole discretion of the qualified 
                body and on a case-by-case basis, require as a 
                condition of such license that a person meet 
                suitability requirements under paragraph (1) if the 
                person--
                            (i) is described in subparagraph (A) with 
                        respect to the applicant or licensee;
                            (ii) provides services to an applicant or 
                        licensee and the qualified body determines 
                        that, with respect to such services, there is a 
                        substantial risk of circumvention of the 
                        suitability requirements applicable to 
                        significant vendors; or
                            (iii) is associated with the applicant or 
                        licensee or one of the significant vendors of 
                        the applicant or licensee and the qualified 
                        body determines such person may pose a threat 
                        to the integrity of Internet gambling 
                        facilities operated by the applicant or 
                        licensee.
                    (C) Information.--A qualified body may require such 
                information from an applicant, licensee, significant 
                vendor or other person identified in this paragraph as 
                the qualified body considers necessary to carry out 
                this paragraph.
            (7) Enforcement actions.--
                    (A) In general.--If the Secretary or the qualified 
                body that issued a license to a licensee finds that the 
                licensee, or any other person that is subject to a 
                required determination of suitability in connection 
                with such licensee, ceases to meet the suitability 
                requirements of this subsection at any time during the 
                tenure of the license, the Secretary or the qualified 
                body may take action to protect the public interest, 
                including, if the Secretary or qualified body considers 
                necessary, the suspension or termination of the 
                license.
                    (B) Imposition of conditions including removal of 
                parties.--Notwithstanding a determination under 
                subparagraph (A), the Secretary or the qualified body 
                that issued a license to a licensee may allow the 
                licensee to continue engaging in licensed activities by 
                imposing conditions on the person to which subparagraph 
                (A) is applicable under penalty of revocation or 
                suspension of a license or certificate of suitability, 
                including--
                            (i) the identification of any person 
                        determined to be unsuitable; and
                            (ii) the establishment of appropriate 
                        safeguards to ensure such person is excluded 
                        from any management or involvement in operation 
                        of the licensed activities.
                    (C) Special rule for enforcement of prohibition on 
                unlawful sports wagering.--If the Secretary or a 
                qualified body finds that a licensee is no longer 
                suitable under this subsection because such licensee 
                has accepted bets or wagers as described in paragraph 
                (3)(F) or has affiliated as described in paragraph 
                (3)(G), the Secretary or the qualified body, as the 
                case may be, shall revoke the license of such licensee 
                in addition to the imposition of such other penalties 
                as the Secretary or qualified body considers 
                appropriate under this title.
            (8) Administrative provisions.--
                    (A) Background check and investigation.--Each 
                qualified body shall establish standards and procedures 
                for conducting background checks and investigations for 
                purposes of this subsection.
                    (B) Non-admissibility of statements for purposes of 
                defamation actions.--Any written or oral statement made 
                in the course of an official proceeding of the 
                Secretary or a qualified body, by any member thereof, 
                or any witness testifying under oath which is relevant 
                to the purpose of the proceeding and relates to the 
                review of an application for a license under this title 
                shall not be admissible in any Federal or State court 
                in a civil action to prove defamation.
                    (C) Preservation of privilege recognized under 
                other provisions of law.--Any privilege recognized 
                under any other provision of Federal, State, or tribal 
                law, including attorney-client, physician-patient, and 
                accountant-client privileges, shall not be waived or 
                lost because a document or communication otherwise 
                protected by the privilege is disclosed to the 
                Secretary or a qualified body under this title.
                    (D) Confidentiality.--
                            (i) Except as set forth in provision (ii) 
                        of this subsection, any communication or 
                        document, except information that is already 
                        public, shall be treated as confidential and 
                        may not be disclosed, in whole or part, by the 
                        Secretary or a qualified body without a lawful 
                        court order or as otherwise required by law, if 
                        the communication or document is--

                                applicant or licensee or of any 
                                affiliate, employee, officer, director 
                                or significant vendor thereof, or of 
                                any other third-party;
                                    (II) prepared or obtained by an 
                                agent or employee of the Secretary or 
                                qualified body that contains

                            (ii) Nothing in this subsection shall limit 
                        the disclosure of information provided by an

                the Secretary may suspend or revoke such license or

                the recipient does not meet the suitability 
                requirements established under subsection (d) or, as 
                applicable, any other requirement imposed on a licensee

                difficulty in an account with a financial institution 
                in the United States for safekeeping and orderly

                            (iii) disclosure to licensees, significant 
                        vendors, or employees or agents of licensees or

                comply with a provision of this section or a regulation

                vendor, service provider, or affiliated company to the 
                extent that the significant vendor, service provider, 
                or affiliated company maintains such information under

    (d) Prohibition on Unlicensed Bets or Wagers.--
            (1) In general.--Except as expressly authorized in this

        gambling facility is authorized and licensed by that State or 
        Indian tribe in compliance with the law of that State or Indian

        opted-in under this section.
            (3) State attorney general enforcement.--In any case in

        enforcement agency, authorized by the attorney general of the 
        State or by State statute to prosecute violations of consumer 
        protection law, has reason to believe that an interest of the 
        residents of that State has been or is threatened or adversely 
        affected by a violation by a licensee under paragraph (2), the 
        State, or the State or local law enforcement agency, may bring 
        a civil action on behalf of the residents of that State or
