Our Current Campaign

Into the Red: Bankrupting Casinos Before They Bankrupt Us

For the last three years we have prevented construction of two "inevitable" casinos through creative campaigns and direct action. We will continue to stop the two proposed casinos with your help. Sign the Casino-Free Pledge.

Casino-Free Philadelphia's In the Red campaign aims to persuade casino investors Neil G. Bluhm (of SugarHouse) and Ronald Rubin (of Foxwoods) to abandon their plans for casinos in Philadelphia.

 

Press Releases

March 2, 2010

Tomorrow, Wednesday, March 3, dozens of supporters members of Casino-Free Philadelphia will travel by on a bus to Harrisburg to present Steve Wynn and the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board with their views on Wynn’s proposal to build a casino in South Philadelphia. They will make it clear that Wynn’s proposal is no improvement, and even worse than the failed Foxwoods proposal.
