Another Senate hearing scheduled on gaming

Tuesday, June 14, 2005  

The Senate Indian Affairs Committee will hold another oversight hearing on the regulation of Indian gaming on Tuesday, June 28.

Sen. John McCain (R-Arizona) has promised a series of hearings into the $18.5 billion tribal casino industry. The first one was held on April 27, when tribal leaders urged caution in amending the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act and others criticized the land-into-trust process.

The witness list for the upcoming hearing has not been made public yet.
