US Representatives Steve Israel (Democrat) and Pete King (Republican) representing Long Island, New Jersey have recently submitted an editorial to the New York Post, calling for an end to the "misdirected… also probably unenforceable" ban on Internet Gambling in the US.

Israel and King refer to Britain’s legal and regulatory framework as an example, where age verification technology checks ensure that gamblers are of age and are not problem gamblers and watch lists work to prevent money-laundering.
