The Oneida Nation of Wisconsin held an informational meeting on Wednesday to discuss recent gaming-related issues.

According to The Green Bay News-Chronicle, tribal officials and members were confounded by the opposition mounted by Republicans to new casino compacts. They said they felt like they are being treated like pawns in a partisan battle between Democrats and Republicans.

The tribe will hold the meetings every week until the tribe's new compact is finalized and signed.
