Instead places the Horse Racing Equity Trust Fund language from the engrossed bill in a new Section of the Illinois Horse Racing Act of 1975 and adds a provision repealing the Section 2 years after the effective date of the amendatory Act. Provides that, for a period of 2 years beginning on the effective date of the amendatory Act, the specified owners licensees must make the 3% payment into the Horse Racing Equity Trust Fund. After the 2-year period, the current provisions requiring certain owners to pay 15% adjusted gross receipts will apply (moneys that will go into the Horse Racing Equity Fund). Restores a provision concerning appropriation of moneys from the General Revenue Fund to the Education Assistance Fund in an amount equal to the amount paid into the Horse Racing Equity Fund in the prior calendar year. Replaces the severability clause with an inseverability clause.</SynopsisText></synopsis>
