Relating to: various changes to the state lottery. (FE)

SB 861 clarifies and updates definitions related to state lottery games and vendor payments. It creates specific definitions for "break open games" (like pull-tabs), "instant games" (scratch-offs), and "lotto games," along with their associated services and supplies. The bill amends statutes to specify that retailers receive up to 1% of instant game revenue and 2% of break open game revenue as additional compensation, while vendors are paid for services under defined categories. These changes primarily affect lottery vendors providing game services and retailers selling tickets, streamlining how payments are calculated and categorized under existing lottery revenue structures.
