The bill amends Arkansas law 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 a multi-state or national self-exclusion program. 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 will be confidential and not subject to public disclosure.

The bill also establishes specific provisions regarding the rights and responsibilities of self-excluded individuals. It prohibits them from collecting winnings or recovering losses from prohibited gaming activities and allows for the forfeiture of any money owed to them by casinos. The commission is tasked with creating rules to implement this self-exclusion system, including procedures for individuals to join or remove themselves from the list and to share their information with other states. Overall, the legislation aims to enhance responsible gaming practices in Arkansas.
