Book excerpt: The provisions of 1986 House Bill No. 2789 create a state gaming revenues fund. Depending upon the passage of other legislation, all or part of the fund may be derived from the operation of a state lottery. While such a lottery is currently prohibited by Article 15, Section 3 of the Kansas Constitution, approval of a proposed constitutional amendment in November, 1986 would permit such activity. Under both Kansas case law and decisions in other states, the legislature may enact bills which are effective only upon the occurrence of some future event, which in this case would be approval of the lottery amendment. Accordingly, 1986 House Bill No. 2789 would be constitutional if enacted. Cited herein: K.S.A. 8-1336; 8-1340; L. 1974, ch. 360; L. 1985, ch. 314; ch. 364; 1985 Senate Concurrent Res.
