“Pennsylvania Payout Shake-Up Moves Forward as Governor Backs Lottery Bill”
Governor Josh Shapiro has publicly supported a newly passed bill that would cut the state’s lottery profit margin from 20% to 10%, allowing higher payouts for scratch-offs and draw games. The bill, which passed the PA legislature last week, aims to make the lottery more competitive with iGaming and sports betting by offering bigger prizes and more attractive odds.
Shapiro’s support signals a green light for implementation, expected as early as September 2025. State officials estimate this change could boost lottery sales by 8–12%, keeping older players engaged while bringing younger bettors into the fold.
