AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend existing laws to distribute lottery funds to cities and towns in direct proportion to the total revenues accruing from lottery sales in each municipality. Specifically, it would strike out a provision that allocates lottery funds to the state's general fund and instead require the balance of the State Lottery Fund to be distributed to cities and towns based on their respective lottery sales. This change aims to ensure that the revenue generated from lottery sales in each community is directly returned to that community.
