The Minnesota Indian Gaming Association is holding a rally this afternoon at the State Capitol.
Tribal leaders, casino employees and their supporters will talk about efforts to expand non-Indian gaming in the state. They say thousands of employees could lose their jobs.
"These proposals are job-killers, especially for rural Minnesota," John McCarthy, the group's executive director said.
