  National Racing Compact
This interstate compact is proposed to simplify the licensing process for participants in live racing with pari-mutuel wagering in the participating states (the "compacting states" or "party states") and to establish uniform requirements among the party states for the licensing of participants in those states.
As a result, states forming a compact simply adopt interstate compacts in the same manner by which ordinary legislation is adopted, or, again by ordinary legislation, state legislatures authorize the adoption of a compact by delegating that authority to an executive branch official, generally the governor.
This compact, however, permits party states to withdraw from the compact by enacting a statute repealing the compact in that state and by giving notice of the withdrawal to the head of the executive branch of the other party states (which in the case of the 50 states will be the governor).
