Bill Summary
Amending Title 4 (Amusements) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in interactive gaming, further providing for interactive gaming tax.
AI Summary
This bill modifies the interactive gaming tax provisions in Pennsylvania's law by reducing the percentage of tax revenue deposited into the Commonwealth Financing Authority's restricted receipts account from 25% to 22%, while maintaining a 3% deposit into the Race Horse Development Trust Fund. The bill specifically changes the tax allocation for funds generated from interactive gaming (online gambling), redirecting a slightly smaller portion to support public interest projects through the Commonwealth Financing Authority. The Race Horse Development Trust Fund allocation remains unchanged, ensuring continued support for live horse racing. The new tax distribution takes effect 60 days after the bill's passage, which will provide a modest adjustment to how interactive gaming tax revenue is distributed among state funds and programs.
