Nebraska's Sports Betting Close Call
In an unexpected twist, a sports betting bill fell just three votes short of passing in Nebraska back in 2025. It seems our Cornhusker state is eager to get in on the action, as retail sports betting was legalized in Nebraska as early as 2020!
Current Status
Since then, the focus has turned to online sports betting. For instance, Sen. Stan Clouse proposed a bill (LB 421) to allow online sports betting, but its current status remains a mystery. Furthermore, a bill (LR 20CA) put forth by Sen. Eliot Bostar aimed to place sports betting on the ballot for November 2026, only to be withdrawn later.
This turbulent legislative landscape suggests that sports betting in Nebraska is still up for grabs, so keep your eyes peeled for future developments!
