South Dakota tribes are losing out on "millions" of dollars because the tribal-state compact limits each to 250 slot machines, state lawmakers were told this month.

Tribes have sought to add slot machines to their casino but have run into obstacles. Gov. Mike Rounds (R) says he won't support an "expansion" of gaming.

"I think we're missing an opportunity ," Jeremiah M. Murphy of the Great Plains Indian Gaming Association told the South Dakota Legislature State-Tribal Relations Committee.

Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe President Josh Weston said his tribe has lost out on "several million" over the past three years.
