Operation Hidden Costs Launch

Wednesday, February 27th, we launched Operation Hidden Costs. The campaign will reveal the real costs of casino slot parlors in Philadelphia. Take a look at the PlanPhilly Coverage of the campaign launch.

The campaign is a six week campaign with three specific objectives:

1.) Get the Governor to name at least seven hidden costs (we will help him with some examples);

2.) Get the Governor to put a price tag on those casinos and create a cost/benefit analysis from available data (if he will not do it, then we will);

3.) Get the Governor in a public debate on whether casinos are worth it, including his plan for how we will pay for the costs.
