Senate Bill 982, which proposes a casino referendum for Tysons, is scheduled for consideration by the Gaming Subcommittee of the Virginia Senate on Monday, January 20, 2025. This bill could grant the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors the authority to place a casino referendum on a ballot for residents.
Comstock Holding Companies has previously indicated its interest in building a casino somewhere in Fairfax County on Metro’s Silver Line outside the Capital Beltway. The company and its allies have spent over $1.5 million on lobbying efforts and campaign contributions to state and local officials since January 1, 2023, in support of such legislation.
The subcommittee's review is a critical step in the legislative process for the proposed casino project. Local lawmakers and community groups have expressed varying opinions on the bill, highlighting the ongoing debate surrounding the potential development.
