Is Kalshi legal in Nebraska?

No restriction found Nebraska: No public action found

The short answer

Kalshi does not publish a list of states where it is unavailable, and we found no court order, regulator action or Kalshi notice that stops it from serving Nebraska as of Oct. 22, 2026.

Nebraska has one public action on record that names Kalshi. The latest (Oct. 7, 2026): Nebraska's attorney general signed an Ohio-led amicus brief, joined by 38 other states and DC, asking the U.S. Supreme Court to grant New Jersey's petition in Flaherty v. KalshiEX (No. 26-299).

Federal appeals from Nebraska go to the Eighth Circuit, where an appeal on the question is pending.
