Oneida Nation sees opposition to liquor license


The Oneida Nation of New York should not be given a liquor license because the tribe doesn't follow state laws, critics say.

The tribe applied for a license to serve liquor at the Turning Stone Resort and Casino. But local officials and an anti-sovereignty group say the tribe has ignored state tax, health and safety laws.

The tribe says its businesses are not subject to state laws. But it notes that Congress has authorized states to regulate liquor on reservations.

The tribe wants the license in time for its PGA tournament in September.
