To authorize using a portion of the revenue from various state taxes to give subsidies to the organizers of certain “large events,” which could include national or international conferences, conventions or sports events expected to attract visitors from outside the state. Senate Bills 1066 to 1068 would earmark a portion of state sales, use and liquor tax revenue to pay for the subsidies, which would first pass through local bureaus or organizing committees.
Referred to the Committee on Economic Development and International Investment
