Oklahoma Gov. Brad Henry (D) has provided $6 million to continue construction of the American Indian Cultural Center and
Museum.
The center has been in danger of losing funds. Lawmakers have yet to approve a $43 million bond deal for the $177.5 million project.
Construction began in 2006. The 300-acre site will feature a museum, a welcome center and private development.
