Gambling News by House of Odds

As reported by the Yuma Sun: "After more than a year of feeling like the
ball in a political pingpong game, the Quechan Tribe appears on the brink of
securing a new gambling agreement. "The California State Assembly voted 50
to 1 last week to ratify a new compact with the Quechan Tribe that sets
regulations under which the tribe can build and operate a new casino. The
legislation is scheduled to go to the Senate floor today, where it could
receive its final state approval. "After Senate approval, the compact must
be submitted to the U.S. Department of Interior for final approval, which
Felix Montague, chairman of the tribe's construction committee, said he
expects to 'be a formality.' "Quechan Tribal President Mike Jackson Sr. said
on Monday that he's been told by Senate leadership the bill likely will
pass.
"The tribe needs the new compact with the state of California to construct a
proposed casino and resort off Interstate 8 at the Algodones exit."
