For the past 20 years, California voters have repeatedly stood with Indian tribes as we’ve sought to authorize and uphold gaming on tribal lands. 

Indian gaming has promoted tribal self-reliance — supporting education, infrastructure, health care, housing and other vital resources for our people.

In return, Indian tribes have upheld our commitment to California — operating well-regulated gaming on tribal lands that benefits Indian peoples and all Californians. Tribal casinos generate nearly 125,000 jobs for Californians, $20 billion for state and local economies, and $1.3 billion in revenue sharing to the state and local governments annually.
