House Resolution No. by Representative Lafleur urges the House Committee on Administration of Criminal Justice to study the feasibility and revenue-generating potential of selling lottery tickets online in Louisiana. The resolution highlights the significant revenue generated by the Louisiana Lottery Corporation, which supports K-12 public education and local events, and notes that other states have successfully implemented online lottery ticket sales. The resolution calls for an analysis of the processes used by these states, including the possibility of utilizing existing contracts to maximize revenue without the need for new vendors.

The committee is tasked with reporting its findings to the Louisiana Legislature before the 2026 Regular Session. The resolution emphasizes the importance of funding education and seeks to explore innovative ways to enhance revenue through modern gaming practices, reflecting a growing trend in other states that have embraced online lottery sales. Additionally, the resolution mandates that a print and electronic copy of the report be submitted to the David R. Poynter Legislative Research Library.
