The Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation of Connecticut has made final per capita payments to its members, The New London Day reports.
At one point, each tribal member received upwards of $7,500 to $10,000 a month. But when the tribe's gaming revenues took a hit, the tribe decided to end the program.
The tribe had been making "transitional" payments of decreasing value, the paper said. Those payments end today.
