Introduced by: Paul E. Krizek | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS ENACTED WITH GOVERNOR'S RECOMMENDATION: (all summaries)
Charitable gaming; temporary permits; limitations; definitions. Authorizes the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services to issue a temporary permit to certain qualified organizations authorizing such organizations to sell instant bingo, pull tabs, or seal cards upon premises located anywhere in the Commonwealth during a convention, conference, or related event lasting no more than seven consecutive days held by the organization's affiliated state, regional, or national organization no more than once per quarter, as designated in the temporary permit. Current law limits the sale of such games by a qualified organization to premises that are owned or exclusively and entirely leased by such organization or premises leased by the organization from any social organization for the purpose of selling such games. The bill also amends the definitions of "organization" and "social organization" for the purpose of charitable gaming in the Commonwealth to include (i) an organization (a) established on or before December 31, 1963, as a result of its members being prohibited from joining similar existing organizations because of laws such as the Public Assemblages Act of 1926; (b) that is exempt from income tax pursuant to § 501(c)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code; and (c) that is operated, and has always been operated, for community awareness and action through educational, economic, and cultural service activities; and (ii) an organization established on or before December 31, 1977, that is exempt from income tax pursuant to § 501(c)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code and is incorporated, in part, to raise funds for donation to organizations whose missions include promoting early detection of and public education about and supporting research and treatment options for heart disease and various cancers.
