New York Prediction Markets law summary
Based on proposed legislation or active legislative development.
New York's ORACLE Act (A9251A/S9414) — a proposal to license and restrict prediction markets — could not be verified on this run because the NY Senate bill pages returned errors; the posture stays under review.

Why this status
Based on proposed legislation or active legislative development.
What this means
- New York has a named proposal — the ORACLE Act — on file in the current 2025-26 session, but a proposal is not an enacted rule. Until the bill is passed and signed with an effective date, there is no enforceable state-level prediction-markets rule in New York. The cited sources blocked the automated reader on this run, so the specific provisions (licensing requirements, age limits, and other restrictions noted in prior records) could not be confirmed against the current bill text. Treat those details as unverified pending a manual check. Federal rules and platform policies are what apply to New York households today in the absence of an enacted state statute.
What to do next
- Open A9251A and S9414 directly on the NY Senate website (nysenate.gov) — both pages are readable in a normal browser and will show the current committee status, any amendments, and whether the bill has moved toward a floor vote. If the bill has passed one chamber, check the Governor's office signing list for any subsequent action.
