RELATING TO A STATE LOTTERY.
HB 1463 requires the Department of Business, Economic Development, and Tourism to study whether establishing a state lottery is feasible. The bill does not create a lottery or affect specific groups; it only mandates a study on the possibility. Key provisions include directing the department to analyze potential revenue, operational requirements, and public impact. The study would inform future decisions but does not authorize a lottery itself. The bill is currently pending in the 2026 session after being introduced in 2025.
