Skill based amusement games-highway fund.
HB 137 increases the tax rate on net earnings from skill-based amusement games (like arcade-style games) from 20% to 25% for vendors. It redirects tax revenue distribution: 36% to local governments (county/city), 36% to public schools, 8% to the gaming commission, and 20% to the state highway fund. The bill affects businesses operating these games and changes how their taxes are allocated. It would take effect July 1, 2026, but the bill was withdrawn by its sponsor in February 2026.
