Nebraska lawmakers consider bill to authorise online sports betting

Related Topics: Sports betting, Nebraska

A new proposal that would permit statewide online sports betting under the current Nebraska Racetrack Gaming Act is being considered by Nebraska lawmakers.

Beyond the existing activities permitted within racetrack enclosures, Legislative Bill 421, a measure put forth by Senator Clouse during the 2025 session, seeks to expand the scope. The bill would authorise licensed gaming operators to offer sports wagering via approved online platforms.

Platform providers would be regarded as sports wagering vendors under state law, and only organisations already licensed as authorised gaming operators at licensed racetrack enclosures would be permitted to offer online sports betting.
