In the midst of Problem Gambling Month, Louisiana's freshman congressman Shaun Mena has introduced legislation to place limits on sports betting advertising.

Mena, which is home to Caesars Superdome and represents New Orleans, the state's largest land casino, told WDSU the goal was to protect "young men and women addicted to these products."

Louisiana's legislative session began on March 11 and is due April 2, when lawmakers are required to submit legislation. The cross deadline is May 31, three days ahead of recess. Louisiana legalized sports betting in 55 of 64 parishes in the November 2020 vote, and legalized digital sports betting, which began on Jan. 28, 2022.

However, other Louisiana lawmakers have told television that they do not think the idea is business friendly and that Mena will struggle to move it forward. The bill has been referred to the House Criminal Justice Committee.

According to several media reports, the concept brings sports fans and betters together into a community where they can share their love of sports, fandom and betting.

Rivet doesn't charge customers for P2P bets. Rather, users can earn money through a "coin system" where they are allocated a set number of free coins a day but can buy more. The site has two types of currencies and offers free play bets and live data from 60 professional sports leagues.

"Our focus is on what do people think of the business itself - are there these features that we believe are transforming the industry?" Carson Hubbard, Rivet's CEO, told Sports Handle. "Are these features interesting enough for people to use? And, are they important enough for users who will actually switch from their traditional sportsbooks to Rivet platforms?"
