TERRE HAUTE, Ind. — A state lawmaker wants to clear the way for a casino in Terre Haute. Republican Sen. Jon Ford is proposing legislation to move unused games held by the Rising Sun casino to Terre Haute. He tells the Tribune-Star (http://bit.ly/2h5m7lf ) that a new casino would create hundreds of jobs and millions in taxes for Indiana and local government. The Rising Sun casino now operates in southeastern Indiana, near Cincinnati. Alex Stolyar of Full House Resorts, which operates Rising Sun, says Terre Haute could be a "prime market." He says the city's location near the Illinois border could attract players from that state. Stolyar says he wants to stay a step ahead of any plans for a casino in Danville, Illinois.
