Nebraska is Losing Out.
Each year, hundreds of millions of dollars leave our home state to support casinos in the surrounding states.
The Goal
To ensure three state ballot measures are passed that will do exactly what our name implies – keep that money and boost local economies here in our home state.
What’s in it for Nebraskans?
$500 million stays in state each year.
Nebraskans spend hundreds of millions of dollars annually gambling at casinos in the bordering states (Iowa, Kansas, South Dakota, Missouri, Colorado and Wyoming), all of which have legalized casino gaming.
$50-$120 million annual tax revenue.
Expanding gaming would bring in millions in new tax revenue that could be used to aid property tax relief and education across the state.
Casinos limited to licensed horse racing tracks.
Nebraska won’t be Las Vegas. The measures will limit casinos to the licensed horse racing tracks across the state.
Ag, Economic & Tourism Boosts.
Tying casino gaming to horse tracks also will create new jobs in the state’s ag, construction, and entertainment industries.
The Good Life stays that way.
Statistics show no correlation between gaming and social problems like problem gambling, bankruptcy, divorce, crime, etc. In fact, Iowa and South Dakota (with casinos) have either the same or lower rates than Nebraska on crime and similar data.
