UNCASVILLE, Conn. – Against the backdrop of a planned $120 million hotel project at Mohegan Sun Casino, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy distanced himself from legislative attempts to expand gambling in the state.
“This is not my proposal,” Malloy told reporters Thursday at the Uncasville casino. “Other people are making it. I’m not saying no, I’m not saying yes.”
Rep. Stephen D. Dargan (D-West Haven), co-chairman of the Public Safety and Security Committee, said a bill expanding gaming has not been submitted to his committee, but discussion at the capitol has revolved around the off-track betting facilities, especially the one in Windsor Locks just north of Hartford.
