Requires harness racetrack locations awarded a gaming facility license maintain live racing activity

This bill requires harness racetracks that have been granted a gaming facility license to continue holding live racing events. It mandates that these locations maintain scheduled live races in accordance with existing racing laws. The law specifically targets harness racetracks (not other types of racetracks) that operate gaming facilities, ensuring they cannot stop live racing without losing their license. The bill amends racing law to add a new requirement for these venues, emphasizing ongoing live racing as a condition of their gaming license. The measure was passed by the legislature but vetoed by the governor in December 2025.
