What the law says

We found no state action on prediction markets in Texas as of 7 OCT 2026. That means none in the sources we checked, not proof that none exists.

Sources. 2 primary and court sources, each quoted on our side and read on 7 Oct 2026: apps.apple.com, support.novig.com. A cell marked not stated means no source we found says it either way.
