Casino money donated in Kan. race
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 24, 2002 A Kansas Congressman who has drafted a bill to settle a tribal land claim received donations from casino interest, The Kansas City Star reports. Rep. Dennis Moore (D) received $7,000 from four donors associated with the Wyandotte Nation of Oklahoma. The tribe did not donate but its casino partner and lobbyist did. The tribe has a 2,000-acre land claim in downtown Kansas City. The bill would settle the claim and authorize trust land in another location for casino development. Get the Story:
