Authorizes gambling on professional and college sports at racetracks, simulcast theaters, and casinos, with proceeds for education.

This bill proposes an amendment to the New York State Constitution to authorize gambling on professional sporting events and athletic events sponsored by universities or colleges.

The net proceeds from such gambling would be applied exclusively to or in aid or support of education in the state.
