Proposed Connecticut legislation puts fantasy sports in danger

Legislation currently under consideration by the Connecticut General Assembly could result in the shutdown of paid fantasy sports in Connecticut for a significant period of time, possibly through the NFL season. On behalf of all fantasy sports players in the state, the Fantasy Sports & Gaming Association (FSGA) strongly urges the General Assembly to make the necessary changes to the legislation to ensure Connecticut residents can continue to participate in the fantasy sports contests they know and love.
