California tribes renew push for gaming compacts


Six California tribes are renewing their push to have their gaming compacts ratified by the state Legislature.

The Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians, the Morongo Band of Mission Indians, the Pechanga Band of Luiseño Indians, the Pechanga Band of Luiseño Indians, the Sycuan Band of Kumeyaay Nation and the Yurok Tribe signed deals last year with Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (R). In most cases, the tribes would be able to break the 2,000 limit on slot machines in exchange for sharing more revenues.

The tribes are lining up sponsors for their compacts in order to get them passes after the upcoming spring recess.
