Directs revenue from certain mobile casino gaming activities to be used for school safety and security purposes
This bill directs revenue from mobile casino gaming activities (including internet-based games accessible via mobile devices) to fund school safety and security programs. It requires that at least $10 million or 1% of such gaming revenue - whichever is greater - be allocated annually for school safety expenses, as determined by the education commissioner. The funds are specifically designated for security-related costs in public schools, not general education spending. The bill amends existing finance law to create this dedicated funding stream for school safety, effective immediately upon enactment.
