Good afternoon,
"Expanded gaming in the
Commonwealth opens the door to a new form of predatory gaming. We are concerned
that the Commonwealth will be forced to rely on an unstable form of
revenue, depending largely on those addicted to gambling. They are the
citizens who are already among the ranks of the poorest in the community - the
ones who can least afford to gamble."
"We urge the citizens
of Massachusetts to vote 'Yes' on Ballot Question 3
and stop the expansion of predatory gambling."
Those sage and impactful words
came in a statement from the Catholic Bishops of
Massachusetts yesterday, led by Cardinal Sean O'Malley, Archbishop of Boston and
the Bishops of Worcester, Springfield and Fall River. Further demonstrating the
growing support for casino repeal, they join elected officials like Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Congressman Stephen Lynch, grassroots
activists, concerned parents, and others.
We're seven weeks from Election
Day. If you've thought about joining the campaign against casino gambling in
Massachusetts, that moment is now.
Join the campaign to stop the casino
mess. Please donate, volunteer to help, and follow us on social media. This fall,
it's a Yes on Question 3.
If you haven't checked it out
yet, our new Yes on 3 website is live. Give it a
look, and share it with your friends, family and neighbors. It'll be an ongoing
source for the latest news, events, and facts about casino repeal.
Together, we'll defeat the casino
industry.
