PML - Racing, Pari-Mutuel Wagering and Breeding Law
Article 10 - (Racing, Pari-Mutuel Wagering and Breeding Law) SIMULCAST OF HORSE RACES
1000 - Legislative intent.

  1000.  Legislative  intent.  The legislature finds that the racing,
  breeding and pari-mutuel wagering industry is an important sector of the
  agricultural economy of this state,  provides  substantial  revenue  for
  state  and  local  governments,  and  employs tens of thousands of state
  residents.
The legislature further determines that simulcasting, the simultaneous
  telecast of live audio and  visual  signals  of  horse  races  on  which
  pari-mutuel  betting is permitted, holds the potential to strengthen and
  further these economic contributions and that it is in the best interest
  of the state to encourage experimentation with such live telecasts.
The purpose of such experimentation shall  be  to  determine  if  that
  technology  can  promote the overall growth of the industry resulting in
  additional revenues for the  support  of  the  racing  associations  and
  corporations,  purses,  breeders,  off-track betting corporations, labor
  and government.
No simulcasts shall be authorized which jeopardize present  racing  or
  employment  opportunities  or  which  infringe  on current operations or
  markets  of  the  racetracks  and   the   regional   off-track   betting
  corporations  which  generate significant revenues for local governments
  in the state.
Accordingly, the legislature hereby  authorizes  experimentation  with
  the  telecasts  of  horse  races, on which pari-mutuel wagering shall be
  permitted, under the regulation of the state racing and  wagering  board
  in the manner and subject to the conditions provided in this article.
