SB 540 (2018)

Summary:

Deletes the requirement that state funding for kindergarten be prorated if revenue raised through keno is insufficient to fully fund the grants. At the time of this bill's submission, the state fully funds all half-day kindergarten programs, but only provides additional funding to full-day kindergarten programs based on revenue collected through keno.  The House and Senate completely amended the bill to instead allow keno in unincorporated places and cigar bars.
