Oregon Lottery returning nearly $900million to the state for 2023

The Oregon Lottery has disclosed its plan to contribute almost $900 million to the state of Oregon in the fiscal year 2023, including the redirection of unclaimed prizes totaling $9 million back to the state.

The $900 million figure represents a slight decrease from the preceding year, likely attributed to a rise in operating costs.

Player payouts reached nearly $16 billion for the year, witnessing record-breaking amounts in jackpot games. Eight fortunate players secured prizes surpassing $1 million each.

The Oregon Lottery has announced that it will be returning nearly $900 million to the state's education fund for the year 2023. This is a significant increase from the previous year, when the lottery returned $775 million. The money will be used to fund public education, including early childhood education and higher education. The Oregon Lottery has been a major source of funding for the state's education system for many years, and the extra money will be a welcome boost. This is especially true given the rising costs of education and the increasing demand for services.
