(The Center Square) – The Chicago City Council voted down a proposed ban on a type of prevalent gaming machines, which are not regulated or taxed by either the city or state due to what officials have described as a legal grey area. The 15-33 vote leaves room for the body to potentially tax sweepstakes machines, bringing in more revenue for the city that has been strapped for cash. Chicago Alderman Anthony Beale, representing the 9th Ward, revived an effort this week to impose a ban on the machines in the city, which appear similar to other video gambling terminals, but are unregulated because they offer free plays, coupons, and other prizes – as opposed to cash payouts. Beale told fellow aldermen that the city is aware of at least 7,000 sweepstakes machines operating within city limits, which he said are illegal based on his interpretation of state law and court rulings. “I talked to a high-ranking state official yesterday and he affirmed to me again that there is no gray area as it relates to the State of Illinois and who regulates these machines,” Beale said. “The state is saying there are no legal sweepstakes machines. So there's no gray area that we're talking about.” Alderman Jason C. Ervin, representing the 28th Ward, opposed nearly every point made by Beale, characterizing sweepstakes machines as “amusement devices” that are legal – as the gaming board hasn’t taken action to regulate them. “The Illinois Gaming Board is correct. If a machine is illegal, it is within their jurisdiction. These machines are not because they are not gaming devices. They are amusement devices,” Ervin said. Ervin, siding with Mayor Brandon Johnson’s administration on the matter, also contended that the ban would be a bad decision for taxpayers. The council last year moved to lift a ban on video gambling terminals, despite opposition from Johnson, leaving the city to trail behind the rest of the state in taxing the profits generated. The city’s current budget relies on roughly $6.8 million from video gambling terminals, the first of which were only approved by the Illinois Gaming Board last week. The approved establishments still require a separate license from the city before they can legally operate. Beale argued that, if the city banned sweepstakes machines, it would drive owners toward the legal path of applying to operate the newly legalized gaming terminals and bring in more revenue for the city. “This is a slam dunk for us to move forward, to do what's right, to maximize the revenue from video gaming terminals that this body has approved that we're looking to get revenue from,” Beale said. Beale said that the Illinois Gaming Board would likely come after the city legally if they tried to regulate and tax the machines. Ervin disagreed. “Those who are operating within the confines of the law, those who are asking to be taxed – not at 5 cents on the dollar, which is what we would get from a VGT machine, but at a level higher than that – we have an opportunity to set and regulate,” Ervin said. “We're tripping over $100 bills to pick up nickels.” Despite disagreements on a ban, city officials have shown hesitancy in approving video gaming licenses for establishments, in part due to an agreement with the city’s only casino. Bally’s Casino, which is set to open its permanent location in Chicago next spring, pays the city roughly $4 million annually to operate. In a letter to the council from Christopher Jewett, Bally’s Chief Development Officer, he stated that the economic cost to the city if they approve new video gaming terminals could be hundreds of millions of dollars, substantially larger than what revenue it would generate. “Absent urgent action by the City Council, however, we will have no choice but to pursue all available legal remedies,” Jewett said in the letter.

(The Center Square) - Democrats across the country are spending millions to unseat U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, the Republican representing Colorado’s 4th Congressional District. Geographically, the district is the largest congressional jurisdiction in Colorado, covering the eastern part of the state and cities such as Castle Rock and Loveland. Boebert has represented the area since 2021, when it was known as the 3rd Congressional District. Boebert is running unopposed in the June 30 Republican primary in Colorado. During the Nov. 3 general election, she'll be up against the winner of the June 30 Democratic primary. Over the years, Boebert has made a name for herself in Congress. Recently, she bucked President Donald Trump on how the administration handled documents related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. She pushed the U.S. Department of Justice to release the documents and was one of the first Republicans to support the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Recently, Trump threatened to pull his endorsement for Boebert after she expressed support for U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Kentucky, who lost his reelection bid to a candidate endorsed by the president. Like Boerbert, Massie supported the release of the Epstein files. "Even though I long ago endorsed Boebert, if the right person came along, it would be my Honor to withdraw that Endorsement, and endorse a good and proper alternative,” Trump wrote on social media. Boebert has focused her reelection campaign on expanding gun rights, increasing energy production and creating jobs. Boebert introduced a bill in May to eliminate taxes on the purchase, transfer or production of firearms. She also supported a bill from Massie to eliminate capital gains taxes on property owned by family farms. “Lauren believes in personal freedom, citizen rights, and upholding the Constitution of the United States,” Boebert’s website reads. Boebert did not respond to The Center Square’s multiple requests for an interview. Eileen Laubacher, a Navy veteran and Democratic candidate in the 4th Congressional District, said she is running to oppose Boebert’s policies. She criticized Boebert’s vote for the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and said the legislation made deep cuts to Medicaid and alterations to Social Security policies. “Seniors can’t afford cuts to Social Security, especially with costs at an all time high,” Laubacher told The Center Square, answering questions by email. “We need to hold our government to account and rein in costly policies.” Laubacher also criticized Boebert’s support for the U.S. conflict in Iran. Boebert has consistently voted against a War Powers Resolution that would rein in President Donald Trump’s ability to continue military options in Iran. Laubacher criticized the conflict’s effect on gas prices and fertilizer. She said farmers in Colorado’s 4th Congressional District are suffering from high fertilizer prices. “When global conflicts drive up fuel and fertilizer costs, it's Colorado farmers and ranchers who pay the price,” Laubacher said. “Colorado needs representatives who are accountable to the hardworking men and women who feed this country — not the lobbyists and political interests in Washington.” Gas in Colorado on Thursday cost an average of $3.98, slightly below the national average of $4 a gallon, according to AAA. The Colorado rate has fallen from $4.66 a gallon one month ago, but remains above the $3.11 average from one year ago. Jenna Preston, a physician and Democratic candidate running in Colorado’s 4th Congressional District, has also criticized Boebert throughout her campaign. Preston has focused on expanding access to health care and reversing cuts from the One Big Beautiful Bill. Preston said she would support expanding childcare options through the Childcare for Every Community Act. The legislation would create a network of federally supported childcare centers in communities across the country. “Her values, military life and 30-year career have prepared her not only to listen to the needs of all in her district, but lead them forward,” Preston’s website reads. Laubacher leads fundraising with more than $8.5 million in contributions to her campaign, according to the most recent Federal Election Commission filings. More than $5 million of that total comes from small, individual donations across the country. Laubacher said she would never take donations from corporate political action committees or corporations. Boebert trails Laubacher considerably with more than $746,000 in contributions. Boebert has received contributions from the House Freedom Caucus and $10,500 from the Maverick Political Action Committee USA, a group for young conservative business professionals. Preston is last in fundraising for the race with more than $92,000 in campaign funds. She received a $1,000 contribution from the Psychology PAC of American Psychological Association Services Inc. Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on June 30, Election Day. For more information, visit the secretary of state’s website, coloradosos.gov/pubs/elections. Early election results will be published that evening at www.thecentersquare.com/colorado.
