Minnesota GOP sees support for urban tribal casino

printer friendly

Minnesota Republicans backing a plan to authorize an urban casino for two tribes say opposition from Democrats is loosening.

Democrats have traditionally opposed any expansion of gaming. They say the state should keep its promise to limit Class III gaming to existing casinos.

But Republicans are confident they can pass the casino bill to help the remote Red Lake and White Earth Ojibwe bands. The two tribes operate casinos but have not benefited from gaming as much as other tribes. The urban casino would share revenues with the state.
