Tribal leaders in California are reacting cautiously to Governor Gray Davis' proposal to expand Indian gaming in order to boost the state's coffers.

Davis said he wants an extra $1.5 billion a year from the tribes. But he said he wouldn't allow gaming to spread to urban areas.

The state is in a budget crunch and Davis has assigned a team to renegotiate existing compacts in order to get more money from the tribes.
