Michigan's Senate Regulatory Reform Committee on Tuesday morning unanimously voted to move a package of gaming bills to the Senate floor.

Hertel confirmed to Legal Sports Report that an agreement has been reached that will get the signature of Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. The tax imposed on operators will be 8.4%.

The measure is expected to be voted on by Wednesday, the final day of this year's leglislative session.

The initial fee for a sports betting license remains at $100,000, with an initial $50,000 application fee to be renewed annually for $50,000.

Michigan will be required to mandate the use of official league data for in-play wagers, following Illinois and Tennessee.
