This legislation simply requires that a lottery outcome be associated with a printed lottery ticket as is typical with most lottery games. It intends to maintain the slow pace of the lottery experience to help maintain the original "for entertainment purposes only" flavor of the lottery. This bill would affect the electronic Touch Tab machines currently in use and prohibit other "casino-like" games in the future.
