Business group backs a Shinnecock Nation casino at racetrack

Tuesday, June 28, 2011

The Nassau Council of Chambers of Commerce says the Shinnecock Nation should build casino at the Belmont Park Raceway.

The tribe has been considering several sites on Long Island, near its reservation. But there's been no official announcement from the tribe itself about a location.

The tribe gained federal recognition last October.
