Gaming Will Be A Topic

Posted on Friday, April 3, 2009

Senator Russ Olson of Madison recently took his place on the State-Tribal Relations Committee.

Olson says disagreement over the number of machines allowed in the various tribal casinos across the state is among the topics he expects the Committee to deal with. He says the Tribes would like more machines and the Governor thinks they already have enough.

The purpose of the committee is to continuously study the relationship between the state and its political subdivisions and the tribes and their tribal governments.
