As we recently saw the devastation with the Hawk Fire in Washoe County, we’re reminded of the alarming reality that some online prediction markets are permitting bets on wildfires. By offering these bets, platforms could be providing an incentive for people to commit arson to make sure their bets are successful or influence fires that have already started.
I’m urging Chairman Mike Selig to put commonsense guardrails in place to prevent people from profiting as wildfires continue to devastate our communities.

From UFC and F1 to the NFL and NHL, and with new professional sports teams coming to our city, Las Vegas has become a world-class sports destination.
Last week, I met with a wide array of sports leaders and UNLV President Chris Heavey to discuss how we can work together to meet the needs of our growing sports tourism industry, which creates more jobs and boosts our tourism economy.
I’ll continue working with these partners to ensure Las Vegas stays a destination for major sporting events by increasing funding for event security, making travel more accessible, and connecting more students to industry jobs through UNLV’s new Sports Tourism Hospitality Program.
