Record Number of Legislators to Attend NCLGS Summer Meeting, July 12-14 in Minneapolis
A Summer Meeting-record number of legislators will be in attendance when the National Council of Legislators from Gaming States convenes July 12-14 in Minneapolis. NCLGS will welcome 38 legislators – and counting – during its three-day conference at the Radisson Blu Downtown.
“While the gaming industry holds numerous conferences each year, the NCLGS meetings are the only ones where the key legislative decision-makers meet to discuss the critical public policy matters,” said NCLGS President William P. Coley II, a Senator from Ohio. “Gaming issues are of growing importance in every statehouse. That’s why we are setting legislator attendance records for the third meeting in a row. Legislators know that they can learn from each other and they can count on their fellow decision-makers to provide them with the unfiltered information they need.”
