Summary
Nebraska’s online sports betting push is heating up as Tax Relief Nebraska drops thousands of signatures to get the issue on the November ballot, aiming to let licensed racetracks and online partners operate under state oversight — turning phone bets legal and potentially unlocking $87 million in tax revenue over five years.
