Bill > HB1067

This bill increases the minimum compensation for state lottery ticket sales agents from 5 percent to 7.5 percent of the retail price of tickets sold. The existing law already allowed lottery directors and operators to determine sales agent compensation, with a previous minimum threshold of 5 percent, and the ability to offer additional incentive bonuses based on sales volume, ticket redemption, or other specified objectives. By raising the base compensation percentage, the bill aims to provide more financial support to sales agents who sell lottery tickets. The bill will take effect on September 1, 2025, giving lottery operators time to adjust their compensation structures to comply with the new minimum percentage requirement.
