Pennsylvania HB1635 amends the State Lottery Law to keep the personal information of lottery winners who receive $1,000,000 or more confidential.

Pennsylvania HB1635 amends the State Lottery Law to enhance privacy protections for lottery winners. It mandates that the personal information of winners who receive $1,000,000 or more, such as their name and address, remain confidential and not be considered public records. However, the city, township or borough of residence, county of residence, and prize amount will still be public records. Winners can choose to waive this confidentiality if they wish. The Department of Revenue is authorized to create rules and regulations to implement these provisions.
