More than 70% of Nebraskans live within 60 miles of an out-of-state casino, and Nebraskans currently spend nearly $400 million at those casinos each year. By bringing back those tax dollars, we can secure a new revenue stream for property tax relief – while creating thousands of permanent jobs.

This election, it’s easy to show
your support for a STRONGER Nebraska.

Initiative 429:
Legalize Gaming

Initiative 429 will legalize casino gaming at licensed horse racing tracks in the state. In state gaming will:

  • Keep $400 million in revenue from going to neighboring states.
  • Create more than 4,600 jobs statewide, including many in rural
    areas to support the resulting expansion of the horse racing industry.

Initiative 430:
Create a Gaming Commission

Initiative 430 will create a state regulatory body, funded by casinos, to govern and license Nebraska casinos. The organization will be responsible for:

  • Ensuring the fair and legal gaming practices at each location.
  • Ensuring reporting from each gaming facility is accurate and complies with all state laws.

Initiative 431:
Tax  Casino Revenue

Initiative 431 will capture more than $65 million of new tax revenue every year:

  • 70% of casino tax revenue will be reserved for property tax relief, contributing more than $40 million dollars to the fund each year.
  • Counties and cities home to casinos will share 25% of the tax revenue.
  • The state’s general fund will receive 2.5%, as will the Compulsive Gambler’s Assistance Fund — making Nebraska’s Commission on Problem Gambling the best-funded in the nation per capita.

Remember:
only voting for ALL THREE INITIATIVES
guarantees the benefits for our state.
