SF 2728 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Certain charitable gambling lawful expenditures cap increase provision

This bill increases the spending cap for charitable gambling organizations on designated community purposes in Minnesota. It directly affects nonprofits and organizations that operate charitable gambling events (like bingo or raffles), allowing them to spend more of their revenue on approved causes. The key change modifies Minnesota Statutes §349.12, subdivision 25, raising the maximum allowable expenditure limit for activities such as supporting seniors, veterans, arts programs, or community facilities. The bill specifies that these increased expenditures must still align with the existing list of permitted uses defined in the statute. This is a straightforward policy adjustment to the financial limits for charitable gambling funds.
