flag Michigan can't force out-of-state horse racing sites to partner with local tracks, court rules.

flag The U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Michigan cannot enforce its requirement for out-of-state horse racing wagering platforms like TwinSpires to partner with local racetracks, finding the state law conflicts with the federal Interstate Horseracing Act. flag The court held that federal law preempts state regulation in this area, invalidating Michigan’s licensing rule and upholding a lower court’s injunction. flag The decision affirms that interstate wagering is governed by federal standards, not state-imposed conditions, and allows TwinSpires to continue accepting bets from Michigan residents without a local partnership.
