The proposed bill establishes a special commission tasked with examining and studying the distribution of lottery revenues to municipalities in Massachusetts. The commission will be composed of various members, including the governor or a designee, representatives from the state lottery commission, members of the House and Senate, and various stakeholders from municipal and retail organizations. The commission's primary goal is to analyze the current distribution mechanisms of lottery revenues, focusing on factors such as geographic equity, municipality size and density, median household income, and the status of municipalities as Gateway Cities.

The commission is required to provide recommendations aimed at improving the equity of lottery revenue distribution. This includes evaluating whether a specific formula should be established for distributing lottery revenues, considering factors like population, income levels, and property tax bases. The commission must report its findings and recommendations, along with any necessary legislative drafts, to the state treasurer and relevant legislative committees by December 31, 2027.
