AN ACT RELATING TO CRIMINAL OFFENSES -- NON-CHARITABLE BINGO

SB 2742 would authorize the state lottery division to operate non-charitable bingo games, creating a new legal framework for this activity. It directly affects the state lottery division by granting it the specific power to run these games, which are typically restricted under current law. The key provision establishes a new chapter in state law to govern non-charitable bingo operations under the lottery division's oversight. This bill does not change existing charitable bingo rules but adds a new, state-run option for bingo games.
