WORK GROUP TO CONSIDER GAMING EXPANSION IN MARYLAND

Statement from Governor Martin O’Malley on THE WORK GROUP TO CONSIDER GAMING EXPANSION IN MARYLAND

ANNAPOLIS, MD
– Governor Martin O’Malley today released the following statement on the work group to consider gaming expansion in Maryland:

“The Commission arrived at a consensus for moving forward to resolve issues around gambling in Maryland. For some reason, the House leadership at the last minute decided they did not want to share in that consensus. Finding common ground will be difficult if House leadership has become invested in the notion that the Anne Arundel site should enjoy a virtual monopoly for as long as possible.

“Over the next several days, I will continue to have conversations with Senate President Miller, House Speaker Busch, Chairman Morton, and County Executive Baker to resolve these lingering issues.”

our governor and the dems are so special. they continue to prey on the people who can least afford to gamble to continue to fill their coffers. they can't get a handle on how to "cut" anything. these people are dangerous and too many that vote are clueless. so sad...
