Lawmakers Approve Legal Sports Betting Proponents of legal sports betting in Nebraska wasted little time in creating a new sports gambling law. Less than two months after the new amendment was passed, another amendment was proposed to allow for online sports betting. Sadly, โปรสล็อตpg this amendment was not approved. Then, legislators began working on a bill to legalize sports betting. Lawmakers introduced Legislative Bill 561 in early 2021, which was approved in March of that year. LB 561 gave more power to the NRGC. Specifically, it allowed the NRGC to create and enforce regulations related to gambling at racetracks in Nebraska. This includes both sports betting and casino games. Gov. Pete Ricketts signed LB 561 into law on May 27th, 2021. Since then, the NRGC has been working to create the infrastructure needed for expanded gambling in Nebraska.
