Las Vegas Sands is negotiating to bring a destination resort-style casino to Texas if allowed in the state, a representative of the company told lawmakers Wednesday.

The casino and resort company has been at the forefront of the effort to expand casino gambling in Texas to include commercial casinos that offer resort-like amenities like hotels, restaurants, meeting spaces, entertainment venues and shopping centers.

Members of the House’s State Affairs Committee on Wednesday heard several gambling bills, including a proposal by Rep. Charlie Geren, a Fort Worth Republican, that would permit a limited number of the destination resort casinos in Texas. Two would be permitted in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, according to the bill.
