Connecticut tribes paying millions to state for police at casinos


Connecticut's two federally recognized tribes are in talks with the state about the cost of law enforcement services at their casinos.

As part of the tribal-state compact, the tribes reimburse the state for law enforcement. The Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation paid $7.3 million and the Mohegan Tribe paid $6.8 million in the last fiscal year, the Associated Press reported.

Both tribes want to address the growing costs of the service.
