AZ SB1719

Increases event wagering operator licenses issued to federally recognized Indian tribes in Arizona from 10 to 22 licenses, provided each tribe has signed the most recent tribal-state gaming compact and applicable amendments.

Allows Indian tribes to operate both retail event wagering within a five-block radius of a sports facility or sports complex and mobile event wagering throughout the state, expanding their authority beyond mobile-only wagering.

Permits retail event wagering facilities on non-Indian land in retail or commercial space, with placement within one mile of tribal gaming facilities subject to specific adjacency requirements to sports complexes.

Exempts Indian tribes operating event wagering exclusively on Indian lands from state licensure requirements, with operations governed by tribal-state gaming compacts and the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act.

Requires the Department to release confidential application materials and investigation records to members of the legislature upon written request.
