NO Gambling/Video Gaming in West Chicago
The Issue
Déjà Vu!
On March 20, 2018, after much debate and public outcry, West Chicago residents were given the chance to vote "yes" or "no" to a nonbinding referendum on video gaming in West Chicago.
In the largest voting turnout in recent history, that vote ended with approximately 70% of the community voting "NO".
Now, just three years later, video gaming is being reintroduced: currently in process between Public Affairs Committee and full City Council on the way to approval.
Please sign this petition to AGAIN send the message to the City Council that West Chicago residents do NOT want video gaming/gambling in our community.
**For further action, please contact your Aldermen and the Mayor and make your stance known. Their jobs are to accurately represent their constituencies! Click this link to find your ward aldermen (two for each ward) and contact information:
