New Jersey’s Senate State Government, Wagering, Tourism, and Historic Preservation Committee Monday morning advanced a first-of-its-kind bill that would ban microbetting in the state. S 2160 now moves to the Senate floor for consideration.
In the last two years, some types of proposition bets have been banned in some states, in part as a response to the NCAA calling for a ban on college-player proposition bets. Lawmakers in Louisiana, Maryland, Ohio, and Vermont prohibited such bets, while other states, including Massachusetts, legalized with bans in place. Still others, like Minnesota, have plans to build a college-player prop-bet ban into their legalization process.
