Allows the legislature to authorize pool-selling without profit
This bill proposes an amendment to the state constitution to allow the legislature to authorize individuals to run pool-selling operations without taking a profit. Currently, the constitution prohibits most forms of gambling, but it already permits state-run lotteries and horse racing betting under specific rules. The key change would create a new exception for non-profit pool-selling, enabling the legislature to pass laws permitting this activity if it chooses. The bill also requires the amendment to be published for three months before the next general election to allow voters to consider it.
