Dear Editor:

Congratulations to State Treasurer John Kennedy for his leadership in pointing out the
harmful effects that proposed casino gambling in St. Tammany Parish can have on
families. Which begs the question: What is Governor Jindal's position on casino
gambling? Will he sign a bill authorizing a vote on casino gambling because he would
not view this as an expansion of gambling? While he prepares for a national television
address and for a possible presidential campaign, perhaps it is time for Governor Jindal to
clearly inform the citizens of Louisiana as to his position on casino gambling.

Sincerely,

John W. Hogue, III

devastating effect on families and quality of life.

For casino gambling to occur in St. Tammany Parish, is is my understanding that it would
first have to be approved by the Parish Council, then submitted to the Legislature, then
approved by you, and then finally approved by the voters. It is rumored that should a bill
allowing casino gambling to proceed to a vote in St. Tammany Parish reach your desk, read more »
