A 4224 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Prohibits the percentage of disbursements from the state lottery fund that goes towards education aid from falling below 45.15%

This bill ensures that at least 45.15% of funds disbursed from the state lottery fund must support education aid, preventing any reduction below this threshold. It directly affects how the state allocates lottery revenue, requiring all disbursements to education aid (including school districts and state-supported schools) to maintain this minimum percentage. The key mechanism is an amendment to the state finance law, mandating that the total percentage of lottery funds going to education aid cannot fall below 45.15%. This is a concrete policy change to guarantee stable funding for education from the lottery.
