Last month, Maryland’s six casinos generated nearly $163 million in gaming revenue, contributing $63.8 million to the state.

According to Maryland Lottery and Gaming, the total represents an increase of $1.2 million (0.8 percent) compared to June 2021. Contributions to the Education Trust Fund in June 2022 were $49.7 million, an increase of $525,773 (1.1 percent) compared to June 2021.

Casino gaming revenues also support local communities and jurisdictions home to casinos, Maryland’s horse racing industry, and small, minority- and women-owned businesses.

In 2018, Maryland voters approved an amendment to the State Constitution to safeguard State video lottery terminal revenues for education purposes.

As described in the bill and the ballot question, supplemental funding must total at least $125 million in fiscal 2020, $250 million in fiscal 2021, and $375 million in fiscal 2022. One hundred percent of the gaming revenues dedicated to public education must be supplemental funding each year thereafter.
