New Jersey gambling legislation

Passed the Assembly June 30, 2026 and reached the Senate Sept. 28, where it was referred to Budget and Appropriations. Would require sports wagering licensees to publish their wagering rules; Senate companion S3419 is in the same committee.

Next: Needs a Senate Budget and Appropriations hearing, most likely in a fall or lame-duck voting session. Having passed one house makes this one of the likelier bills to move.

Assembly resolution urging a ban on targeted gambling ads to people showing signs of problem gambling. Adopted by the Assembly Sept. 24, 2026 and filed with the Secretary of State.

Next: Done. Resolutions carry no force of law and need no governor action; any ad restriction requires a separate bill.

Would cut the minimum annual thoroughbred racing dates. Passed the Senate June 30, 2026 and was referred to Assembly Tourism, Gaming and the Arts the same day; Assembly companion A4356 has no hearing.

Next: Needs an Assembly committee hearing and floor vote. Having passed the Senate gives it better odds than most, but nothing is scheduled.

Would require people on self-exclusion lists to watch educational and counseling videos. Reported out of Assembly committee Sept. 14, 2026 and awaiting second reading; Senate companion S2362 is in Senate Budget.

Next: Eligible for an Assembly floor vote in the next voting session. The Senate still needs Budget Committee action on S2362.

Would bar incentive-based wagering. Reported out of Assembly committee May 7, 2026 and awaiting second reading; Senate companion S3420 has no recorded action.

Next: Can go to an Assembly floor vote at any voting session; no vote has been scheduled in the data. Senate action is not in view.

Senate bill on a ban on wagers on student athletes. Introduced Oct. 8, 2026 and referred to the Senate State Government, Wagering, Tourism & Historic Preservation Committee; no committee action is recorded.

Next: Introduced in October 2026 and awaiting committee scheduling; the new bill has the whole 2027 session to move.

Senate bill on directing Casino Revenue Fund money to treatment centers. Introduced Oct. 5, 2026 and referred to the Senate Health, Human Services and Senior Citizens Committee; no committee action is recorded.

Next: Introduced in October 2026 and awaiting committee scheduling; the new bill has the whole 2027 session to move.

Would make underage gambling a civil penalty. Introduced Jan. 13, 2026 and transferred to Senate Judiciary on Sept. 28, 2026; Assembly versions are A1817 and A1822.

Next: Needs a Judiciary hearing. The move to a new committee suggests some attention, but no vote is scheduled.

Would impose a surtax on income from prediction markets. Reported from Assembly committee as a substitute June 28, 2026 and awaiting second reading; Senate version S4447 has the same status.

Next: Both houses have a substitute at second reading, and leadership-level sponsors are attached to the versions, so a vote in a fall or lame-duck session is plausible. Litigation with Kalshi over the state's authority could complicate it.

Senate version of the prediction market surtax, sponsored by Nick Scutari. Reported from committee as a substitute June 28, 2026 and awaiting second reading.

Next: Likely to move alongside A5336 in a fall or lame-duck voting session. Final form depends on negotiations between the houses and the governor.

Would let the Division of Gaming Enforcement join a national self-exclusion program. Reported from Senate committee June 11, 2026 and awaiting second reading; Assembly companion A3689 has not had a hearing.

Next: Ready for a Senate floor vote at any voting session. The Assembly needs to act on A3689 or amend in the Senate bill.
