Dec. 5, 2010: Midnight Rider - Carcieri

This is a discussion draft of a long-term continuing resolution. This is the portion of the discussion draft with the Carcieri fix included in it. Note the Coburn language requiring Interior to identify what tribes are affected by this has been deleted. And there’s a new subsection seemingly ratifying and confirming all prior trust acquisitions – the intent seems to be to foreclosed any legal challenges to any trust acquisitions by the Secretary. I cannot find the Feinstein IGRA limitation anywhere in this draft bill. Her language did not make the cut on this particular version. And note the day/time of the discussion draft at the bottom of the page. It’s truly a “Midnight Rider.”
