Html Version - This is the revised rule that they re-wrote and re-proposed. It replaces 401.305 and 401.312 that appears in the May 11th edition

Poof ... During the July Commissioners meeting, Ms. Cloud announced that between Sept. 2000 and July 13, 2001, they had $29,077,428 in unclaimed prize monies and were transferring these funds to the multicategorical teaching hospital and the tertiary care facility. Game & Amount of Unclaimed Prizes
One of the biggest challenges I have is to succeed in getting you to comment. Most people wont take the time or dont feel its worth their time. But Im fighting for what I believe is right and I know you agree with me. PLEASE help me spread the word, get comments and signatures. And here's a simple copy and paste comment I believe all winners should receive the same exact percentage of sales - No winner should receive more or less than other winners. Pay us what we have coming - nothing more and nothing less. We do not approve of the TLC paying the amount they advertise. That figure should represent ONLY the estimated amount the winners will receive. NO to 16TAC - 401.302 - Scratch Tickets I believe the TLC should tell players how many scratch tickets were printed and how many prizes there are for each prize before selling the tickets. This information should be available at EVERY retail outlet for people who inquire. Do not delete the paragraph that states the end of game report does not have to be completed. This information should be a matter of public record. See Unclaimed Prizes Since Inception of the Texas Lottery
