Update on the Lottery Suit
Remember that little lawsuit we talked about? The one
against the expansion of the Ohio Lottery?
It didn't seem like a very big lawsuit when it all got
started. A number of Ohioans looked at what the Constitution said and compared it
with what the General Assembly did in attempting to expand the lottery. The two laws just
didn't match up at all. So several of us got together and filed a lawsuit. Then the tidal
wave hit!
In just two week, statewide reporters, TV journalists,
radio talk show hosts, and national media came out of the woodwork to write about this
little lawsuit challenging the notion that more gambling was good for the economy. We've
been collecting the news stories and editorials that have popped up all over Ohio.
We've placed many of them on our website so you can catch
up on all the news quickly and free of charge. In the midst of all this flurry an
interesting discovery has come to light. As we travel Ohio talking about the mismatch
between gambling and good government something quite surprising keeps happening. All kinds
of people stand up and applaud. Republicans, Democrats, editorial writers, business
leaders, and everyday Ohio folks cheer together saying its about time somebody finally
stood up and told the truth about the Ohio lottery and legalized gambling.
What a wonderful, wonderful surprise.
If you're one of those that's been applauding - thank you.
If you'd like to join the growing tidal wave of support to get Ohio back to an honest
economy and out of the gambling business please call us today, write us. We need your
help.
