With the House's approval of a similar bill in June, Thursday's action moves the bill closer to final approval than ever before. But a last-minute change removing language that would allow states to legalize the practice within its boundaries, made through an amendment by Senate Banking Committee Chairman Sen. Richard Shebly, R-Ala., has Nevada senators and the casino industry concerned.

If so, in 2011 the Los Angeles basin in California could be linked by "maglev" to Las Vegas, 269 miles away in Nevada. Advocates say the route would energise the moribund US ground transport system, creating jobs and easing both road and air congestion. By 2018, they say, the maglev line could carry about 28m passengers a year between Anaheim and Las Vegas, one of the fastest-growing US cities.

Jack Whittaker said he hopes the incident will not affect the Jack Whittaker Foundation, which he established to help charities operated by the Church of God and other causes. He also said he wanted to remind the media and the public that he is a private citizen. "I'm simply a businessman who has seen his share of failures and successes," Whittaker said.
