Connections to Indian gaming helped bring down former Congressman Tom DeLay (R-Texas) but that isn't stopping him from speaking at the casino owned by the Morongo Band of Mission Indians.
DeLay, the former House majority leader, is the keynote speaker at the California Republican Party's upcoming Liberty Dinner. The event takes place at the Morongo Casino Resort & Spa on October 4.
DeLay resigned in June 2006 after being linked to the Jack Abramoff scandal and after being indicted in Texas on election charges. He was closely linked to the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians, Abramoff's biggest client, despite being opposed to gambling.
