The Connecticut Division of Special Revenue released the results of the first study of legalized gaming in 12 years.
The report looked at Indian gaming, charitable gaming, the state lottery and racetrack betting.
It found that the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation and the Mohegan Tribe created 12 percent of all new jobs in the state since 1992.
The report cited the tribe's contributions to the state through the Class III tribal-state compact. In 2008, the tribes shared $411.4 million, the report said.
