Relating to the continuation and functions of the Texas Lottery Commission.
HB 1505 extends the Texas Lottery Commission's existence until September 1, 2037, instead of 2025, and adds a limited-scope review requirement by 2029. The bill prohibits sales agents from intentionally or knowingly selling lottery tickets to anyone under 18, imposing criminal negligence as a standard for violations. It mandates annual training for commission members on laws, audits, ethics, and operational rules, requiring them to acknowledge receipt of a training manual each year. These changes directly affect lottery sales agents, commission members, and the Commission's operational structure.
