The Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians voted to appeal a California judge's decision that subjects the tribe to the state's campaign finance law.

The Fair Political Practices Commission, a state board, says the tribe is not complying with the law. The tribe says it voluntarily discloses contributions made to state politicians and campaigns.
