The bill amends Arkansas gambling laws to authorize the Arkansas Racing Commission to maintain a statewide self-exclusion list for individuals who wish to be excluded from entering casino facilities. The new section, designated as 23-117-103, defines "self-exclusion" and outlines the commission's responsibilities, including the option to join multi-state or national self-exclusion programs. The self-exclusion list will serve as the definitive record of self-excluded individuals, replacing separate lists maintained by individual casinos. Additionally, the information on this list is confidential and not subject to public disclosure.

The bill also establishes that individuals on the self-exclusion list cannot collect winnings or recover losses from prohibited gaming activities, and any money owed to them as a result of their gambling activities will be subject to forfeiture. The commission is tasked with creating rules to implement this self-exclusion system, including provisions for individuals to join the list across multiple states and the process for removing themselves from it. The costs associated with maintaining the self-exclusion list may be funded through assessments from casinos or forfeited amounts under the Arkansas Casino Gaming Amendment of 2018.
