A bill that would shut the public out from the decision of who sits on the powerful commission that oversees casinos has come under fire from gaming experts. “Transparency is essential,” said Bill Thompson, a national gambling expert at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas. “It’s an attractive industry for corrupt people, and they’ll try to get an angle through politics or the board.”
