A Virginia House subcommittee pushed aside a bill meant to pave the way for a Fairfax County casino.
The measure would give the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors the right to call a referendum on a casino in Tysons .
Opponents of the plan welcomed the action as a fatal strike, particularly since the subcommittee is not scheduled to meet again before the General Assembly session concludes Feb. 22 .
Virginia has three casinos in Bristol , Danville and Portsmouth .
Supporters say a sixth casino located in Tysons would create thousands of good-paying jobs.
Opponents say the bill seeks to dictate land use — something normally left up to localities.
Ex-spies who live and work in the area say the casino could threaten national security.
