AI outlook · Oct 12, 2026

The 89th Legislature and its two special sessions ended without advancing any gambling expansion. Major constitutional amendments authorizing casino gaming, sports wagering, or tribal compacts all died without reaching a floor vote. The only gambling bill enacted was SB1346, a narrow measure prohibiting bulk purchases of lottery tickets to prevent jackpot washing. Texas remains among the most restrictive states, with sports betting, iGaming, commercial casinos, and online poker still unauthorized. The launching pad for the next session is unchanged: any expansion requires a two-thirds vote in both chambers to place a constitutional amendment on the ballot, and the governor has shown no appetite for convening a special session on gambling.

What to watch: All eyes now turn to the 90th Legislature convening in January 2027. Proponents are likely to refile constitutional amendments for casino resorts and sports betting, but the path remains steep without a shift in the Republican caucus or a crisis that forces leadership's hand.
