This bill allows charitable organizations recognized as tax-exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code to obtain amusement games licenses for conducting games at festivals, carnivals, or fairs that they sponsor or benefit from. The bill stipulates that these organizations must meet all other existing requirements for licensure under the Amusement Games Licensing Law.

Currently, amusement games can only be conducted by licensed entities at specific venues, such as entertainment locations, amusement parks, and agricultural fairs. This legislation expands the scope of eligible organizations by permitting certain nonprofit entities to participate in the amusement games licensing process, thereby enhancing their ability to fundraise through such events.
