HF 2780 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Cap on certain lawful expenditures for charitable gambling increased.

This bill increases the spending cap for certain charitable gambling activities in Minnesota. It amends Minnesota Statutes section 349.12, subdivision 25, to allow charitable organizations (like nonprofits running bingo or raffles) to spend more on approved "lawful purposes" such as community programs, veterans support, educational initiatives, and youth recreational activities. The change specifically modifies the existing cap on these expenditures without altering the list of permitted uses. This affects organizations operating charitable gambling events that must comply with state regulations.
