AN AMENDMENT TO THE ARKANSAS CONSTITUTION TO REMOVE REFERENCES TO GREYHOUND RACING FROM ARKANSAS CONSTITUTION, AMENDMENT 100.
HJR 1019 proposes an amendment to the Arkansas Constitution, Amendment 100, to remove all references to greyhound racing. This is due to an entity no longer holding a franchise to conduct greyhound racing in the state. The bill would modify sections related to casino gaming, including the types of wagers accepted and how casino gaming is regulated. It also adjusts the distribution of the net casino gaming receipts tax and the required contributions for racing purses and breeding activities, reallocating funds previously designated for greyhound racing.
