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.
