New York Attorney General James Joins Bipartisan Coalition Defending States’ Gambling Laws Against Prediction Markets - AG James And 37 Other Attorneys General File Amicus Brief In Support Of Massachusetts’ Lawsuit Against Kalshi For Violating State Gambling Laws By Offering Sports Betting

Date 24/04/2026

New York Attorney General Letitia James today joined a bipartisan coalition of 37 other attorneys general in filing an amicus brief supporting Massachusetts’ lawsuit against the prediction market platform Kalshi for illegally offering sports betting in violation of the state’s gambling laws. Kalshi allows its users to bet on the outcomes of a wide range of events, such as elections and award shows, but it is primarily a sports gambling operation. In 2025, Kalshi reported its users bet over $1 billion every month on the platform, 90 percent of which was spent on sports betting. In September 2025, Massachusetts sued Kalshi for offering sports betting without following state gambling laws. In an amicus brief to the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts, Attorney General James and the coalition argue that Kalshi must be subjected to state gambling laws and urge the court to reject Kalshi’s argument that the bets it offers on its platform are actually financial instruments that should be exclusively regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).
