Default Re: New Article on HR 4411

On Tuesday, the National Indian Gaming Association announced its opposition to the bill, saying that it contained carve-outs for the horse-racing industry and state lotteries. But the House measure would not directly affect Indian tribes. The Leach-Goodlatte bill would not change the way states and Indian tribes regulate gambling and allows them to make online gambling legal within their borders if they found a "secure and effective" way to verify the location and age of the gambler.

This is very interesting to me. So United States Indian tribes are ALLOWED to open up and run online gambling sites? This is a very good thing I would think. I hope they open some up soon. And I'm sure the Mirage people will then say, if the Indians can have an online site, well then why the hell can't we?
