North Dakota tribal leaders met on Saturday to show their opposition to off-reservation gaming.

The North Dakota Indian Gaming Association called the meeting after the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewas floated a plan for a casino in Grand Forks. The tribe has not formally said it will build the casino.

But representatives of the state's four other tribes said they oppose the idea. They want to protect jobs on their reservations and prevent a statewide expansion of gaming.
