Legislation
R.I. town votes against expansion of gaming


The Middletown, Rhode Island, town council passed a resolution opposed to any expansion of gaming in the state.

The resolution criticizes a proposal in the State Legislature to put a casino vote before voters this November. The Narragansett Tribe needs state approval for any gaming.

Efforts to put the question on the ballot have failed in recent years.
