SCRIPT:

Willing to roll the dice on your family’s future?

Trenton politicians want to risk putting two casinos in North Jersey.

From property tax hikes to lost pensions, these guys have broken promise after promise to us.

Now, the politicians are stacking the deck so their rich, special interest friends win big.

While refusing to tell hardworking Jersey families whose backyard these casinos could end up in.

North Jersey casinos are a risky bet we can’t afford.
