Casino
Project Picks Up Labor
Support
The
Ohio State Building and
Construction Trades Council has
formally voted to back the My
Ohio Now Resort and
Casino
Initiative which will be on the
statewide ballot this
Fall.
My
Ohio Now is currently collecting
signatures for the Fall ballot,
and the campaign has been in full
gear for months with grassroots
activities, statewide television
and radio advertising, and strong
organization building.
"Working
men and women will benefit from
the My Ohio Now Casino Project in
many ways," said Charles Morton,
head of the Dayton Building
Trades Council, and OSBCT point
man for the My Ohio Now Project.
"Not only do we encourage working
people to vote for the
initiative, we are excited to be
a major partner to bring 5,000
good paying permanent jobs to
Ohio that pay pension and full
health care benefits."
My
Ohio Now is a partnership between
North East Ohio entrepreneurs Mr.
Rick A. Lertzman, Dr. Bradford
Pressman, and Lakes Entertainment
of Minnetonka, MN. "We are
honored to stand with the working
men and women of Ohio to create
great jobs in construction as
well as permanent jobs at the
resort casino. This state
desperately needs investment and
jobs, and a $600 million
investment in Ohio's economy with
5,000 permanent and thousands of
construction jobs is just what
the Doctor ordered for Ohio's
ailing economy," commented Dr.
Pressman.
"The
Building Trades know the great
positive economic impact The My
Ohio Now Casino would have
throughout the state and are
standing up for working Ohioans
who will benefit so greatly with
this huge economic development
project," Stated Lertzman. "Ohio
needs help, and Ohioans can vote
for a better and more prosperous
future this November. We applaud
The Building Trades for
recognizing how important this is
for Ohio's future," Lertzman
continued.
