We're Off to Arizona!

Oct 14 2008
This week, the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law at Arizona State University is hosting "Indian Country's Winning Hand," a conference marking the 20th anniversary of the federal Indian Gaming Regulatory Act. The law was enacted on October 17, 1988, and established the overarching governmental framework for tribal gaming.

As one can imagine, the industry has grown and changed in many ways, some of which Congress clearly foresaw in 1988, and some of which would be news to those lawmakers.
