This bill creates the Tourism Economic Development Fund, which would be funded by revenues generated from the negotiated state share of electronic gaming profits from casino gambling pursuant to the Tribal-State Revenue Account. The bill creates a funding formula, as well as a new program, which provides for supplemental tourism grants. The bill seeks to increase the amount of money available for tourism related marketing and promotion programs both run by the state Department of Economic Development through the "I Love NY" program, as well as those programs administrated by Tourism Promotion Agencies (TPAs) state- wide.

An act to amend the state finance law, in relation to the tribal-state compact revenue account; and to amend the state finance law and the economic development law, in relation to creating the tourism economic development fund and providing for supplemental tourism grants
