MEMORANDUM

Posted: January 22, 2013 03:16 PM
From: Representative Paul I. Clymer
To: All House members
Subject: 10-MILE BUFFER AROUND GETTYSBURG NATIONAL MILITARY PARK AND A CASINO (FORMER HB 2082)
 

In the near future, I plan on introducing legislation that will amend the Gaming Act to place a 10-mile casino buffer around Gettysburg National Military Park.

Since the Gaming Act was passed in 2004, investors have been anxious to place a casino in the Gettysburg area.

Gettysburg was the turning point of the Civil War. A casino would cast a shadow over Gettysburg and take away the solemnity, history, and knowledge of those who bravely fought in this great battle.
