Gov. Bush not ready to talk gaming with tribe

 printer friendly
Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) says he isn't ready to talk about a gaming compact with the Miccosukee Tribe.

"This is very complicated stuff," he told Knight Ridder. "There are no negotiations under way."

The tribe sent a letter to Bush seeking a Class III gaming compact. The tribe cited a voter-approved amendment paving the way for slot machines in two counties.

The letter started a 180-day deadline for Bush to respond in "good faith." There is no legal requirement that he negotiate a compact.
