00:00Is there any update on sports betting online in Nebraska?
00:07We've been following this now.
00:08I thought that something was supposed to come down last Friday, but I didn't see anything.
00:12Yeah, so Nebraska, it was an interesting special session.
00:16They spent a lot of time filibustering, talking through one kind of one bill.
00:21Of course, that was property tax reduction, which was at the governor's request for this
00:26special session.
00:28In it, there was the potential that a sports betting bill to expand online, they have retail
00:33sports betting in Nebraska, would get through to help kind of supplement property tax losses.
00:41It did not get brought up to the floor.
00:43The adjournance signee died yesterday, and so it's not getting done.
00:48Now that said, Governor Pillen does say there's a sports betting priority bill.
00:53A priority bill means it's going to be kind of talked about in the January session.
00:57However, it'll still probably be an amendment, which means it will not be able to be on the
01:02ballot until 2026.
01:03So online sports betting in Nebraska will still be a few years away.
