At least one Oklahoma sports betting bill has been introduced ahead of the 2025 session, but its passage is far from certain. The bill would allow tribes to renegotiate their agreements with the state to include in-person and mobile wagering. The new compact agreement would require the participation of at least four tribes. The addition to the casino code would also impose new levies from sports betting.

The proposed Oklahoma sports betting bill marks a significant step forward, but its passage hinges on navigating complex tribal negotiations and securing broader support. Requiring at least four tribes to participate ensures a collective approach, but balancing interests between the state and tribes will be crucial. The inclusion of new levies could also spark debate about revenue-sharing and regulatory frameworks. It will be interesting to see how stakeholders shape this proposal before 2025—could this set a precedent for other states?
