Slots Get Another Hearing

Another hearing at the Massachusetts State House was held on Tuesday to address a slots and simulcasting bill passed by the Senate on October 6. Representative Dan Bosley, longtime gambling foe, chaired the hearing and stuck to his position that any good that might come from slots would be outweighed by the bad. He did, however, promise to bring the matter to a House vote before the legislative session ends on November 15 (Lowell Sun).
