Indiana Casino Bill Amended to Include DeKalb, Steuben, and Wayne Counties

An amendment to one of the Indiana bills proposing to relocate a casino to Allen County has been added to include DeKalb and Steuben counties as well as east central Indiana’s Wayne County. The House Public Policy Committee passed the amendment yesterday. Steuben and Wayne County officials testified yesterday in support of bringing a casino to their communities. Bringing a casino to northeast Indiana has continued to receive significant concerns from residents about potential negative societal effects.
