Ernie Stevens re-elected at NIGA's annual meeting

Ernie Stevens Jr., a member of the Oneida Nation of Wisconsin, won re-election as chairman of the National Indian Gaming Association.

Stevens will serve his fourth two-year term as head of the largest tribal casino organization. He was elected during NIGA's annual conference and trade show in Phoenix, Arizona, last week.

"The past two years have been challenging ones for all of us in terms of our legislative battles," Stevens said. "We will continue to persevere and protect with our proactive agenda, yet we are always be ready to mobilize Indian country in order to defend tribal sovereignty."
