• The constitutional amendment authorizing the Scholarship Lottery that Arkansas voters approved in November 2008 specifically states that lottery-generated scholarship proceeds must be added on top of existing state scholarship funding. If a future legislature attempts to cut scholarship funding available from sources other than the state lottery that would be grounds for a lawsuit by any Arkansas citizen.
