Introduced Text

Illinois HB3135 regulates video gaming terminals, restricting their operation within 1,000 feet of schools or places of worship and within malls.

HB3135 amends the Video Gaming Act to establish location restrictions for video gaming terminals. It prohibits licensed establishments from operating terminals within 1,000 feet of schools or places of worship. Additionally, it restricts terminals in malls to prevent undue economic concentration. The bill also mandates that 50% of after-tax profits from video gaming terminals be split between the terminal operator and the licensed establishment. Violations of these provisions are subject to criminal penalties and license termination.
