Trump: A.C. casinos should sue over smoking ban
April 29, 2008
Donald Trump said Thursday that casinos in Atlantic City should sue over a smoking ban recently approved by the city council.
Trump says the ban creates a competitive disadvantage for Atlantic City gambling establishments.
According to an Associated Press story at majorwager.com:
The real estate magnate, chairman of a company that owns three casinos in Atlantic City, said he would not file his own suit but wants the Casino Association of New Jersey to stop the ban from taking effect in October.
“I’m not a smoker, and I don’t personally like what smoking does to people,” Trump told The Associated Press in an interview in his Manhattan office. “But this puts us at a huge disadvantage.”
Whole thing here.
Slot parlors recently allowed in Pennsylvania do permit smoking.
