There isn’t a federal law against online betting or gambling for that matter. In January 2012, Chris Christie, New Jersey’s governor, signed legislation allowing sports betting to be legal in NJ and the bill was approved. The new law allowed the state’s 12 casinos and 4 horse tracks to offer to bet on professional and college sports, but not to accept bets from college events in New Jersey or out of state games that included the state’s teams.
After that, the NFL, NHL, NBA, and MJB filed a lawsuit against the state to prevent it from legalizing sports betting based on PASPA. The District Court Judge Michael A. Shipp in February 2013 ruled in favor of the athletic leagues. In 2014, New Jersey challenged PASPA and won by proving the act was unconstitutional. New Jersey was in the clear to legalize sports betting. Finally, on the 11th of June, 2018, Governor Phil Murphy legalized sports betting at racetracks and casinos within New Jersey.
