****ACTION ALERT—HB 250 PREVENT LOTTERY EXPANSION—PASSED HLEDC—CALL HBIC****

 

Dear Friends,

 

As you may have read in the newspapers, would prevent expansion of the lottery to Play at the Pump, Keno, Video Lottery Terminals (read shot machines), and Online lottery play.

 

We need to contact the members of the House Business and Industry Committee and encourage them to pass this important bill.  Personal contacts are the best contact, followed by telephone contact, followed by fax, followed by email, in order of effectiveness.  If a committee member is your representative, it is especially important to contact him/her, but all contacts are important.

 

When you call their office, usually you will have to leave a message with their secretary.  Be polite and patient.  You don’t have to sound like an expert on the bill.  Use your own words to say why you want the representative to support HB 250.  You might mention that you don’t like any expansion of the lottery, or playing it at the gas pump is a bad idea, or you are worried about video lottery games.  But mainly, just ask them to support HB 250.

 

The House Business and Industry Committee will probably hear HB 250 within the next seven days.  The list of committee members is below.  Click on their name and it will bring up their legislative website with their contact information.

 

Please pass this action alert on to your contact lists where appropriate.

 

It is important that you call or otherwise contact the legislators as soon as possible.
