The bill proposes amendments to sections 5-554 and 5-1301 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, focusing on event wagering. It introduces changes to the language regarding the payment of lottery prizes, ensuring that no particular prize can be paid more than once and clarifying the sole remedy in case of multiple claimants. It also specifies that elected officials' names may not be printed on lottery tickets or shares, and requires the overall estimated odds of winning to be printed on each ticket.

The bill also updates the fiscal allocations to the internet crimes against children enforcement fund and the victims' rights enforcement fund, changing the text to reflect the amounts in numerical format ($900,000 and $100,000, respectively). It removes the conditions previously required for the commission or director to establish and operate electronic keno and mobile draw games. Additionally, the bill clarifies the definition of "other event" and "mobile draw game," and renumbers several definitions for clarity. It also sets a specific date (April 15, 2021) for the deduction of free bets or promotional credits from adjusted gross event wagering receipts. The bill excludes electronic games that depict casino-style games from the definition of "other event" and makes various other technical and organizational changes to the language of the law.
