Behind every gambling statistic is a family fighting to stay afloat.

Online gambling has turned financial harm into a business model; eroding security, trust, and lives in the process.

The human cost is mounting, and the need for public health protection has never been clearer.

The numbers tell the story: nearly half of young men now say legal sports betting is a bad thing for society. That number has doubled in just three years.

The public is waking up to what this really is. It is not a game. It is a high-speed addictive product designed for profit.

The call for reform is growing louder. Learn more about the public health solution at harrylevant.com/safe-bet-act

Gambling addiction is not an isolated problem. It’s part of a wider web of suffering that often includes depression, anxiety, and substance use.

This is a public health crisis that demands action, not stigma.

Here at the Public Health Advocacy Institute (PHAI) we have long emphasized the need for evidence-based regulation, rather than relying on the gambling industry’s ineffective “responsible gaming” programs.

Our Director of Gambling Policy, Harry Levant, was recently featured in discussing the industry’s failures:

“You can’t say to a person who is struggling with addiction, ‘well just don’t do that anymore.’”

PHAI advocates for a public health approach: restrictions on marketing, game types, and gambling frequency for everyone — preventing addiction before it starts.

We urge policymakers to prioritize prevention and public health over industry profit.

For an even deeper dive into the industry’s risks and public health impact, watch Anderson Cooper’s Sports Betting: America’s Big Gamble, which features PHAI’s President Dick Daynard, Executive Director Mark Gottlieb, and Director of Gambling Policy Harry Levant. It is available to stream on HBO Max.

When 81% of gambling addicts are hooked online, it is not personal failure.

It is a public health failure. Regulation must follow.

We need federal guardrails to stop the harm. The SAFE Bet Act is the first step.

They said they could help. What they really did was help the casinos.

For 456 straight days, I sat in a casino 14 hours a day. Not once did anyone step in.

That’s not oversight. That’s a system designed to look the other way.

Sports betting wasn’t just legalized; it was unleashed.

What was sold as harmless fun has become a product designed to addict, marketed with no real guardrails, and pushed into every home, every phone, every game.

This is not entertainment. It is a public health crisis. We need regulation that protects families, not profits.

The biggest risk this NFL season won’t come from the players on the field.

It comes from an industry flooding America with an addictive product that targets families, kids, and communities.

Public health is not about control. It is about protection. Regulation saves lives.

It’s time to face the truth: online gambling is a public health crisis.

Some messages bear repeating. I am not opposed to sports gambling. I support its properly regulated legalization.

What I oppose is the reckless experiment unleashed on the American people in just six years. This AI-driven online gambling model addictively monetizes every moment, putting lives at risk.

This is not the same product of the past. It is a fundamentally different, defectively designed, and inherently dangerous system. We cannot ignore it.
