Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Chairman Kenneth Reels is asking Connecticut lawmakers to oppose a casino-related bill.

The bill would outlaw so-called "Las Vegas" nights in the state as a means of prohibiting future casinos. Reel said the bill is an attack on state-recognized tribes that might seek gaming.
