AI Generated Summary

This bill is about changing the way taxes are calculated on the money made from charitable gambling activities in Minnesota. The main points are:

  1. It proposes new, lower tax rates on the money groups earn from gambling activities after paying out prizes.
  2. It introduces different tax brackets, each with a new tax rate, for different amounts of net receipts an organization receives in a fiscal year.
  3. The bill specifies the exact percentages and tax amounts for each bracket.
  4. Additionally, it makes sports-themed tipboards exempt from these taxes. A tipboard is a type of gambling where winners are determined by the outcome of a sports game.

The goal is to reduce the tax rates and adjust the tax brackets accordingly, which could potentially help charitable organizations retain more from their gambling proceeds.
