Non-tribal casinos pour money into slot initiative

Tuesday, April 13, 2004  

Non-tribal casinos in Washington have donated $62,500 to an initiative that would allow them to offer slot machines.

According to The Seattle Times, three non-tribal casinos contributed money to Tim Eyman, a sometimes controversial figure in initiative politics in Washington. Eyman's initiative would lower state property taxes by taxing slot machine revenues at non-tribal facilities.

Currently, only tribes are allowed to offer slot machines. Card clubs are limited to certain card games.
