Abstract
In 2018, the Supreme Court overturned the longstanding prohibition against sports betting in Murphy v. NAACP. States rushed to capitalize on the new industry, with twenty-eight states currently regulating sports betting. These new laws primarily focus on licensure requirements and generally fail to protect sports’ integrity through match-fixing prohibitions. While a few federal laws regulate sports gambling, only one specifically addresses match-fixing. Against this background, this Note analyzes and compares states’ sports gambling laws against their match-fixing laws, and it proposes new legislation aimed at protecting the integrity of sports games.
