Nightstalker:
a) There is no federal casino commission
b) The ones that do exist are created by the states
c) Indian reservations have their own laws independent of the states they exist within
d) Indian casinos are the result of compacts between the states and the reservations, under IGRA
And guess who those compacts give authority to? Take this bit from the Hoopa Valley-California compact:
Quote:
All Gaming Activities conducted under this Gaming Compact shall, at a minimum, comply with a Gaming Ordinance duly adopted by the Tribe' and approved in accordance with IGRA, and with all rules, regulations, procedures, 'specifications, and standards duly adopted by the Tribal Gaming Agency.
