Voting for Question 7 will provide tax cuts to casinos, even as Maryland residents see their tax bills rise. It falsely promises an increase in education funding but does not guarantee significant job growth for Maryland residents. Vote Against 7.
- There is nothing in Question 7 or state law that requires the state to use gaming revenues to spend more on education than it would otherwise.
- Question 7 gives casino operators permanent, double-digit tax cuts while Maryland families and small businesses bear an ever-increasing tax burden.
- There is no guarantee that a majority of casino and construction jobs will go to Maryland residents.
