More Tribes Opposed to PokerStars in California
Additional tribes have come forward sharing the disapproval of the California Tribal Business Alliance in terms of PokerStars making a deal with Californian tribal and poker interests. In total there are twelve additional tribes expressing concerns. Two tribes, the San Manuel and Pechanga Bands, currently have two bills before the state legislature. Tribes object to 'bad actors” saying: “Although we presently have slightly differing views on a legislative framework for Intrastate internet poker in California, our tribal governments are united in our steadfast opposition to the easing of regulatory standards that would accommodate bad actors whose past behaviour and tainted brands and assets would erode the integrity of Intrastate Internet poker under consideration.” Tribes in support of the statement: Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians. Barona Band of Mission Indians. Kumeyaay Indians. Lytton Band of Pomo Indians. Pala Band of Mission Indians. Paskenta Band of Nomlaki Indians. Pechanga Band of Luiseño Indians. Rincon Band of Luiseño Indians. San Manuel Band of Mission Indians. Sycuan Band of United Auburn Indian Community. Viejas Band of Kumeyaay Indians . Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation.
