The North Dakota House wants residents to decide if sports betting and internet poker should be allowed in the state. Representatives on Tuesday endorsed a pair of bipartisan resolutions and companion bills that set the rules for the gambling operations. The proposals now move to the Senate. If approved by both chambers, the measures could appear on the November 2022 ballot.

Opponents worry that expanded gambling in the state could cause more gambling addiction problems.
