California tribes have commissioned a study to determine the economic impact of their casinos and their businesses.
The California Nations Indian Gaming Association, the Tribal Alliance of Sovereign Indian Nations and the California Association of Tribal Governments are participating in the study. They say it will show how gaming has had an impact across the state.
“Tribes are proud of what we have accomplished over the past twenty years as a result of gaming,” Lynn Valbuena, TASIN chairwoman, said in a press release. “When voters affirmed our right to offer gaming, they gave us the opportunity to pull our communities out of abject poverty. We committed to making a difference for all California tribes and contributing to California’s economy in a meaningful way.”
Beacon Economics will conduct the study.
