The Commonwealth’s first new state agency in nearly 40 years is tasked to oversee the creation of a casino industry offering both slot machine and table gaming that is producing tremendous economic benefits for Pennsylvania citizens. Specifically, legalized gaming has already created thousands of new living wage jobs, revenue to lower property taxes for all homeowners, and a reinvigoration of our horse racing industry.
