Alabama HB448 proposes an amendment to the Constitution of Alabama of 2022 to establish an official state lottery and a public corporation to administer it. The lottery would consist of draw-based and instant win games, using only paper, plastic, or cardboard tickets, and would not use video lottery terminals. The lottery would participate in a multi-jurisdiction lottery. The Governor would negotiate a compact with the Poarch Band of Creek Indians, allowing Class III games on trust lands. The state's immunity to suit in federal court would be waived for disputes arising under the compact.
