A Delaware state has recommended providing a $46 million bailout for the First State’s gambling industry.
The plan to stabilize the Delaware’s three casinos came as a shock to some on the state’s Lottery, Gaming and Study Commission.
Where the money would come from as the budget battles heat up in Dover is still not clear.
House Majority Leader Valerie Longhurst who is also a member of the panel…called the proposal “an annual tradition that is not sustainable.”
Longhurst and fellow lawmaker Representative Charles Potter voted against the proposal and are preparing a minority report.
The recommendation was approved by the panel on a 5-to-4 vote.
