Quinn To Act On Gambling



Governor Quinn is expected to take action on the gambling bill tomorrow but he isn't saying what he plans to do.

In the past, Quinn has been very vocal about vetoing any bill that would expand gambling too much. The new bill would add five casinos across Illinois. It also includes slots at racetracks, something Quinn has opposed in the past. Quinn has also expressed concern because the current bill does not offer enough regulations over the gaming industry and political contributions.
