Agua Caliente Chair: Gaming builds better future


"Marc Cooper's tirade against tribal self-reliance misses the point that gaming produces billions of dollars a year in good salaries and benefits to employees, sales for local businesses, state taxes and direct aid to communities and charities. Now California has an opportunity to do even better.

The new compact with just our tribe, now before the state legislature, would add nearly $2 billion over 20 years to the general fund — which means more money for our healthcare system, schools, law enforcement and other priorities. The compact again guarantees workers' right to organize under the Tribal Labor Relations Ordinance and assures our employees a fair vote on union representation. The new compacts will help to build a brighter future for all of California."
