State Gambling bill (Update)


Governor Quinn is defending his decision to veto a gambling proposal that would've added five casinos across the state.  He says more gambling won't solve the state's fiscal troubles.  He's encouraging lawmakers to refocus their priorities and pass comprehensive pension reform.  House Speaker Michael Madigan has said he will not seek to override the veto. 

The proposal would have brought a casino to the city of Rockford.
