AI Summary

This bill, concerning revenues from sports gaming in Tennessee, proposes to amend existing state law by reallocating a portion of the "privilege tax," which is a tax levied on the privilege of engaging in certain activities, in this case, sports wagering. Specifically, it reduces the percentage of this tax allocated to one area from eighty percent (80%) to seventy-eight percent (78%), and then dedicates two percent (2%) of the collected privilege tax to fund programs that serve at-risk youth in both rural and urban areas of the state. The Department of Economic and Community Development will be responsible for creating and managing a program to administer and distribute these funds, utilizing existing resources, with these changes taking effect on July 1, 2026.
