Authorize a progressive jackpot form of lottery and raffle under the Nebraska Lottery and Raffle Act and the Nebraska Small Lottery and Raffle Act

Nebraska's LB 1120 authorizes licensed organizations to conduct lotteries and raffles with progressive jackpots - where prize pools grow until won - under the existing Nebraska Lottery and Raffle Act and Nebraska Small Lottery and Raffle Act. The bill requires organizers to register these games with the Department of Revenue, post clear rules publicly, and use at least 50% of gross proceeds for prizes (down from the standard 65% for regular games). It also permits selling tickets via vending machines and online through a licensed organization's website, while maintaining requirements for ticket transparency and equal odds. This bill directly affects nonprofit and community groups operating licensed lotteries or raffles in Nebraska.
