SB 561 Illinois Senate · 104th Regular Session

GAMING-TECH

SB 561, titled "GAMING-TECH," is a procedural bill that makes a minor technical correction to the Illinois Horse Racing Act of 1975. It adjusts the short title of the act to clarify its reference within the law, with no changes to actual regulations or operational rules. This amendment does not affect horse racing operations, licensing, or any gaming-related policies. The bill directly impacts the legal text of the Horse Racing Act but has no practical effect on stakeholders or the public. (Note: The bill's title "GAMING-TECH" is misleading, as it relates solely to the Horse Racing Act's administrative naming, not gaming technology.)
