Letter: Sen. Larson's comment about proposed Grand Forks casino was disgraceful
To the editor,
What a disgrace for the comment made by Sen. Diane Larson,
who suggested before a North Dakota Senate vote that a proposed casino in Grand Forks
might be backed by cartels. She has no knowledge of economic development and how that can help North Dakota cities like Grand Forks.
I have seen how Grand Forks has struggled since the pandemic and this casino would have been an asset to other businesses. Hopefully others in the Senate will see the benefit and bring this issue back.
It’s time to let the people speak and tell Diane Larson to go back home! This is the kind of faulty decisions that keep North Dakota from going forward and prospering.
