  • On Wednesday, a routine budget hearing for the Texas Lottery Commission turned into a harsh warning from lawmakers. The Senate Finance Committee urged the commission to take action to ban courier services that allow players to buy lottery tickets through external sources.

The article discusses a Senate hearing where Texas lottery officials were accused of enabling illegal activities. During the hearing, Senator Carol Alvarado criticized the Texas Lottery Commission for not doing enough to prevent lottery ticket fraud, particularly through the use of "ticket messengers" who buy tickets on behalf of others, often across state lines where it's illegal. The lottery leaders, including Executive Director Gary Grief, defended their actions by stating they have limited authority to regulate these third-party services. The hearing highlighted concerns over the integrity of the lottery system, with testimonies suggesting that the current practices could be facilitating money laundering and other illegal activities. The discussion also touched on the need for legislative changes to give the lottery commission more power to oversee and regulate these ticket purchasing services.
