Reference: Does this refer to Intra-state ONLINE gambling?

Reference information:
A Bold Move
Part of the reasoning behind the bill is the law not reflecting the facts on the ground. According to statistics there are currently 500,000 online poker players in the state of New Jersey. State Senator Raymond Lesniak (D-Union) points out that "we're missing out on around $100 million in revenue". He added, "It would be a big boost to the casino industry in Atlantic City. It's a bold move, and in this economy we need bold moves."

The bill sets up an annual tax on gross revenue from online casinos of 20% and would certainly see the tax coffers swell.

Intra-State Gambling
There would be no additional casinos planned for New Jersey, the State's existing land-based casinos, all located in Atlantic City, would be given the green light to open up online casinos for local residents.

The bill has been created following on from a recent federal court of appeals decision which stated that online gambling must be restricted within the borders of a state.
