The house passed the bill with a veto proof majority. The Senate would need to find six votes to override a Quinn veto. Senate President John Cullerton has said he plans to work with the governor to avoid a veto. The bill would add five casinos across the state plus allow slots at race tracks. It's expected to generated billions in additional revenue.
