Legislature leaves current casino operator hanging in new location law
Summary
Full House Resorts sought assistance from Indiana lawmakers to address declining revenue at its Rising Star Casino due to increased competition in the Cincinnati area. The company hoped to move its casino license to northeast Indiana. After two years of debate, the legislature approved a bill establishing a 14th state casino license. However, the new law does not provide specific assistance to Full House Resorts, despite the company having contributed over $116 million in tax revenue to the state.
