A BILL for an Act to amend and reenact subsections 7 and 21 of section 53-06.1-01, subdivision a of subsection 1 of section 53-06.1-03, subsection 2 of section 53-06.1-10.1, and subdivision c of subsection 2 of section 53-06.1-11.1 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to the definitions of an educational organization and public-spirited organization, and raffles; and to provide for application.

SB 2035 would have amended North Dakota law to clarify definitions of "educational organization" and "public-spirited organization" for raffle purposes. It specifically updated legal definitions in the Century Code to determine which organizations could legally hold raffles under state rules. The bill aimed to standardize eligibility criteria for groups like schools or charities seeking to conduct raffles for fundraising. The bill was introduced in February 2025, amended in committee, and ultimately failed to pass on March 28, 2025, with 87 votes against and 4 in favor.
