Bernie Sanders, one of the Democratic candidates for President, has visited Iowa many times over the past year and many of those times were to the city of Des Moines. CAGE correspondent Paul Waddell had the opportunity to speak with him during one of Sanders events about his position on the expansion of gambling. Sanders said he had mixed feelings and needed to learn more about the issue.
Waddell specifically asked him if that answer also included his position on the changes on the regulations of off-reservation casinos for Indian tribal gambling. Sanders again responded that he would really need to learn more before he was quoted on the issue.
In further researching Sanders voting history in Congress, we find that he did not support internet gambling and voted against it several times. We hope that this inclination continues with any further expansion of gambling.
Tell us what you think...
