Massachusetts House Speaker Robert A. DeLeo (D) unveiled a proposal to authorize two casino resorts and slot machines at four racetracks.
The bill, if enacted, would allow tribes to engage in Class III gaming. The Mashpee Wampanoag
Tribe and the Aquinnah Wampanoag Tribe are both interested in casinos.
Gov. Deval Patrick (D) supports gaming but said he does not agree with DeLeo's proposal to allow slot machines at racetracks.
