Maryland HB 295 passed the House 105-24 on March 20, 2026, but the official final-status index records only a later Senate hearing and no chaptered enactment.
The Maryland House passed HB 295 by a 105-24 vote on March 20, 2026. The official bill history records its referral to the Senate on March 23 and a Budget and Taxation Committee hearing on April 1.
The House third-reader text proposed restrictions on certain internet or mobile games that used multiple currencies and simulated casino games, lottery games or sports wagering. It proposed a July 1, 2026 effective date.
Maryland's final-status index records no enactment for HB 295 or its Senate crossfile, SB 112. The proposed July 1 date therefore never became law, and HB 295 itself created no new deadline or restriction for Maryland players or operators.
