State’s casinos generated more than $2 billion in tax revenues in FY 21-22.
Pennsylvania’s casino industry is a major driver of our statewide economy that benefits every single taxpayer, whether they happen to enjoy gaming or not.
Casinos also deliver more than $150 million in annual local share grants to first responders and nonprofits in their local communities and invest more than $500 million annually with Pennsylvania businesses. This industry supports more than 30,000 jobs across the state for a total of $2 billion in annual wages, benefits and tips. That is an enormous and positive impact.
These machines do not generate a penny in gaming taxes. They also are bringing crime to communities across the state, and they drain revenue from programs for seniors that the Pennsylvania Lottery funds.
