SB 168 New Hampshire Senate · 2025 Regular Session

regulating online gambling and directing net proceeds to the education trust fund, the general fund, and to reimburse municipalities for elderly, disabled, blind, and deaf tax exemptions.

SB 168 regulates online gambling by requiring licensees to pay 45% of their gross gaming revenue. This revenue is split as follows: 35% to charitable organizations, and 65% distributed to three funds - 25% to an education special fund, 25% to reimburse municipalities for tax exemptions (for elderly, disabled, blind, and deaf residents), and 50% to the general fund. The bill directly affects online gambling operators, charities, municipalities, and state education and general funds. It establishes a clear revenue-sharing mechanism without altering gambling rules or creating new taxes.
