Late Saturday, both chambers of the General Assembly approved the casino bill SB756 without any amendments. A similar bill passed the senate last year and senior leadership privately predicted last fall that it would pass both senate and house this year, so this is not a surprise. 

Explicit Fairfax County opposition to casino legislation continues to be Fairfax County policy and I call on Governor Spanberger to veto SB 757.  We did not ask for it, and we don’t want it.
