Early morning on March 17, Nevada casinos locked their doors.
Sandra Morgan, Nevada Gaming Control Board chair, has lived in Nevada since she was a year old. She grew up around the tourism industry. “My mother worked in the hospitality industry,” she explained. “When you think about the closure, and the fact they never had to lock the doors because the doors were always open, and it’s definitely something nobody would ever want to do again.”
The COVID-19 virus has caused an unprecedented economic impact on Nevada’s tourism industry. The financial ramifications on hospitality and gaming workers and their families, on businesses and state and local budgets, is far reaching.
