Lotteries, casinos, race tracks, and other games of chance often are proposed as ways to raise tax revenue for the state, with varying results. Michigan runs a statewide lottery and also allows casinos on Native American land and horse racing venues. What all of these have in common is their regulation through state laws, which define the manner in which lotteries and casinos may be operated and levies taxes on these activities. This section covers Michigan laws related to the state lottery, casinos, and gambling in general.
