@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith Who INSERTED THIS in the original bill. It didnt magically appear. Let’s gets some answers on that and why they did it. Members of congress don’t read the bill before they voted on it. Thats a PROBLEM

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith If you’re truly concerned about gamblers well being, you should eliminate 6/5 blackjack, double/triple zero roulette, hitting soft 17 and many other ridiculous rule changes that have been enacted over the past 20 years or so solely to rinse people even harder.

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith use that big lead foot derek. all gas no brakes

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith The video you make When your voting habits kill your business

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith End taxes on gambling winnings @realDonaldTrump

@John_Mehaffey @repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith I get what you’re saying that no one wants this to go into place but unfortunately every gop rep voted for it as well as 50 gop senators. They got a consensus and now Vegas and those who voted for these gop members of congress will have to deal with the consequences

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith You should not be taxed on gambling winnings AT ALL. Casinos, lotteries, and sportsbooks all collected tax revenue. You just should not be allowed to write off losses either. What happened to tax simplification?

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith Calling Senators doesn’t work anymore. You probably know some powerful people who can get this in the hands of someone more influential than Dina Titus, and can get this repealed. That’s who can fix it. The gambling community is not big enough for a grassroots movement here.

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith Well said Derek! Thanks for fighting to get this fixed and meeting with Rep. Smith! Contact your representatives:

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith I thought you knew a guy?

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith Stop allowing multiple entries in Survivor. It makes the contest a sham.

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith The vehicle is: 1. Getting a hearing on the FAIR Bet Act and 2. Passing the FAIR Bet Act. Simple. Bipartisan. American.

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith Well said Derek!

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith My lobbying/advocacy group and I are trying to reach you ASAP to discuss. I left my phone number and email address with your staff. Let's connect.

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith You waited until December 11th to hold this meeting... The complacency of those in Vegas regarding this issue will be what ends Vegas for good.

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith You voted 🗳️ now you have consequences

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith Your favorite political party wrote this entire bill Derek, and voted for it lock step, including Ted Cruz... No way they will try and fix this because Trump will see it as admitting he made a mistake, he never admits his mistakes

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith you literally held a Trump rally at your hotel. elections have consequences 🤷♂️

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith I can't really think of a casino owner that this could hurt more than @DerekJStevens. Some casino owners might actually think this tax change could help them, by pushing advantage gamblers offshore or out of business, but @CircaSports welcomes them.

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith Let’s go Derek we’re gonna save gambling

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith I will personally make zero online bets in 2026 because of this rule! I personally guarantee tax revenue from gambling will decrease because of this law and not increase! In other news offshore sports books will be booming!

@JDGoldboys @repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith I don’t listen to people that call it the big beautiful bill. Fucking clown.

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith It only seems fair but i doubt it will have the negative effects that have been predicted. Most don’t itemize gambling losses and those that do are not going to stop gambling over 10%. But good Luck 🍀

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith People keep saying it was inadvertant. But isn't that a misnomer? The provision didn't get there by accident. Whose amendment was it? And why did they do it? And who are their lobbyists/donors? This reeks of something slipped in by Mike Pence's anti-gambling PAC.

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith If Mike Crapo from Utah can stick this into the bill last second, why can’t Jackie Rosen or Catherine Cortez Masto simply stick in their own $5,000 handpay limit for tax purposes or some amendment Makes no sense. How did Crapo just drop this in without disclosure, without vote?

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith The one casino operator who Trump picks up the phone for no matter what wasn’t included in this meeting further proves @dinatitus is not only ineffective at her job but also kind of a moron. Adelson doesn’t have US casino right now but she is most powerful voice for gaming in DC.

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith You marched Trump through your casino like he was a sports trophy. You bought this outcome and now you can live with it.

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith @danawhite

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith This what you voted for and invited to your casino

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith Derek Stevens! A man of the people! @RepDelBene @PattyMurray @SenatorCantwell Please get this done!

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith Great job D. Way to explain wtf you are talking about. Good God man. What is about to become law and why is it a bad thing? Start there bud.

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith @MikeCrapo decided to kill an entire industry/city to “offset” what amounts to ~0.25% of the OBBBA’s expenditure. And it will be much lower than that as no sane sports bettor will use a regulated sportsbook moving fwd. Stop taxing phantom income. @WaysandMeansGOP @SenateFinance

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith Look up who represents you and who to contact to stop this shit..

@CircaSports @repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith 3. Casinos & states still get paid — only players get punished Casinos already: •Take their edge •Report winnings (W-2Gs) •Pay state gaming taxes A 90% rule: •Doesn’t hurt casinos •Doesn’t reduce gambling •Only punishes the player who churns money

@repdinatitus @SenCortezMasto @tedcruz @contessabrewer @AmericanGaming @CaesarsPalace @MGMGrand @LVCVA @CircaLasVegas @RepJasonSmith If everyone is in agreement, how did it get out into the bill to begin with??
