Massachusetts bill limits state to one tribal casino compact

Tuesday, April 6, 2010  

A bill that would legalize gaming in Massachusetts attempts to limit the state to one Class III gaming compact in the first 15 years.

The Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe and the Aquinnah Wampanoag Tribe are both interested in casinos. But the bill says the state can only negotiate one compact in the first 15 years.

The bill authorizes two resort casinos and slot machines at four racetracks.
