Brown County Chamber of Commerce Dinner
 Rep. Bird was honored to recognize the Drucker Lifetime Award to John Wood Insurance Agency at the Brown County Chamber of Commerce Dinner.
Rep. Bird is thankful to the Chamber for all the years of support for community events like this.
House Bill 476
Representative Bird is a co-sponsor of House Bill 476 – legislation that legalizes the sale of online raffle tickets, ensuring nonprofits can continue raising funds in the modern, digital ways they’ve come to rely on - without fear of legal repercussions. Importantly, this bill does not open the door to online gaming. It simply affirms what organizations have already been doing for years: selling raffle tickets online while maintaining the community-centered spirit of fundraising, including an in-person component for traditional raffles.
H.B. 476 will also do the following:
- Comply with state and federal restrictions on out-of-state ticket sales
- Prohibit sales to anyone under age 18
House Bill 476 now awaits consideration in the Senate Select Committee on Gaming.
