Colorado voters will decide a constitutional amendment on Nov. 8 that would lift some restrictions on charitable gaming activity.
If approved by 55% of voters, the amendment would:
- repeal the existing ban on paying managers and operators of charitable gaming activities and limit compensation to the applicable minimum wage until July 1, 2024;
- reduce from 5 years to 3 years the length of time an organization must exist before obtaining a charitable gaming license through Jan. 1, 2025; and
- after Jan. 1, 2025, allow the legislature to determine in statute how long an organization must exist before obtaining a charitable gaming license.
