The scandal surrounding the Texas Lottery is prompting big changes in the Legislature. The Texas House passed a bill Monday morning that will transfer the lottery games to the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation and abolish the Lottery Commission.

Senate Bill 3070 would move the lottery game to Texas’ Department of Licensing and Regulation and includes new restrictions on how players can buy tickets.

Senate Bill 3070 would abolish the lottery's governing board but allow the games to continue under the authority of a different state agency.
