Maryland Fair and Agricultural Education Promise Fund - Establishment ( Charles J. Otto Agricultural Education Promise Act)

Summary

The bill establishes the Maryland Fair and Agricultural Education Promise Fund, a special, non‑lapsing fund that receives lottery proceeds, state budget appropriations and interest earnings. Each year the Comptroller must award grants to the Maryland Agricultural Fair Board, the Maryland Agricultural Education Foundation, the Maryland State Fair and Agricultural Society, and the Maryland FFA Association to support fairs, youth programs and agricultural education. It also removes a prior rule that required horse‑racing revenues to be used for these purposes.
