  Horse Racing Safe as Internet Gambling Ban Passes | bloodhorse.com
Much of the debate on the House floor before the vote centered on the pari-mutuel horse racing industry, which under the IHA is permitted to offer account wagering across state lines between states that expressly permit it.

The horse racing industry and the U.S. Department of Justice remain at odds in their positions on interstate pari-mutuel wagering, though the federal government has taken no action.
