Casinos Coming To Texas?!?!

Local radio show here in San Antonio was talking about this last night, so I looked it up.

There are obviously several hurdles to clear, but the bottom line is that this proposal seeks to add resort-type destinations to 8-12 large counties in Texas. If it clears the Texas Legislature, there would then be an up or down vote for the residents. If passed, the Texas Constitution would be amended.

Then, it would be up to the voters in each county, and on a specific plan-by-plan basis.

In other words, the county would vote yes or no on each proposal (the specific development, land-site, etc.).

Any legal-eagles out there care to read the proposed new law and expand?

Also, other than writing our representatives, what else can we do to push this through?
