HF 4273 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Lessor employees permitted to participate in pull-tab games when off duty.

This bill allows employees of gambling facility owners to play pull-tab games at their workplace when they are not working. It amends existing Minnesota gambling laws to create an exception for off-duty lessor employees, permitting them to participate as players in pull-tab games at the premises where they work. The law maintains restrictions that prevent employees from playing while on duty or during working hours, and it keeps existing rules that bar employees from participating in other types of gambling games like bingo or electronic linked games. This change specifically affects employees of organizations that operate pull-tab games, giving them the option to play these games after their shifts end.
