COMMITTEE:
- Racing, Gaming and Wagering
“The Governor should be commended for ending a long standing dispute with the Oneida Nation. I wish him continued success in resolving remaining disputes with other Native American tribes and nations. The Governor’s actions will help bring greater clarity to where private sector casino gaming can go. I look forward to continuing to work with my colleagues in the Senate and Assembly, and the Governor to bring casino gaming to fruition this year.”
