Lawmakers Seek Compromise on Lottery Bill [AUDIO]
Updated: (2/25 @5:31 p.m,)
A joint conference committee worked out a deal on the lottery bill. The compromise calls for cities and towns to receive $6 million of the proceeds each year for 6 years, with the overage going into the common school land trust fund. The compromise must now go to the House and Senate to see if they agree with the deal.
A bill that would allow a state lottery in Wyoming has been sent to a conference committee after the state House voted 34-25 not to agree with an amendment the Senate made last week in how the proceeds of the lottery would be used.
