This bill would change where a portion of sports betting tax revenue goes after it enters the sports wagering administration fund. Instead of that share flowing to the permanent pension fund, it would be redirected to the Kentucky Lottery trust account. This shifts how the state allocates money collected from sports wagering. Who it may affect: state pension beneficiaries and programs funded through the Kentucky Lottery trust account.
