New Hampshire House rejects casino bill
The casino bill proposed up to a maximum of 5,000 slot machines and 240 table games at two locations.
One of the gambling venues would have been a Category one, with a minimum construction budget of USD 80M. The other would have been a Category 2 facility, worth no less than USD40M.
Critics argued the casinos would give rise to gambling addiction and suck money away from local businesses. Some past casino supporters detracted this year, in wake of the recent sale of Rockingham Park, which has long been considered a prime spot for casino development.
The bill had already cleared the Senate, with supporters saying it would boost state revenues.
According to the bill’s sponsor, Sen. Lou D’Allesandro, and other proponents, the proposed gambling expansion would have kept casino revenue in the state, would have created jobs, and would have benefited economy.
