Law and Laws: Native American Gaming
Leaving Small’s Hotel, Chapter 34:
“We want to build a casino,” said Arnold.
“A casino,” said Albertine.
“Oh? What’s your tribe?” I asked.
“We’re not sure,” said Bobbi. “Arnold is looking into that.”
“Where there’s a will there’s a way,” he said. [. . .]
“I think that there’s more to it than that,” said Albertine. “I think those casinos have to be on tribal land.”
Wikipedia, “Native American Gaming”:
Native American gaming comprises casinos, bingo halls, slots halls and other gambling operations on Indian reservations or other tribal lands in the United States. Because these areas have tribal sovereignty, states have limited ability to forbid gambling there, as codified by the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988. As of 2011, there were 460 gambling operations run by 240 tribes, with a total annual revenue of $27 billion.
