Kansas’s position

Kansas legalised sports betting in 2022. The law took effect on July 1, 2022 and “authorized the Kansas Lottery to offer sports wagering,” with the Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission directed to adopt rules. It bars anyone “under the age of 21” from wagering on a sporting event. Betting launched in September 2022, per the Kansas Reflector.

Attorney General Kris Kobach signed the October 2026 states’ brief asking the US Supreme Court to take up a Kalshi case, but we found no Kansas enforcement, and Pew Research Center’s June 2026 tracker shows no Kansas prediction-market bill. See is Kalshi legal?
