Show full summary
  • Ysleta del Sur Pueblo and the Alabama-Coushatta Tribe would have gaming on their Indian lands regulated under IGRA in the same way as other federally recognized tribes.
  • Removes sections 107 and 207 of the Texas Restoration Act to clear overlapping or conflicting language and align oversight with IGRA.
  • The bill cites that IGRA has supported tribal economic development and self-sufficiency, and it aims to preserve those benefits by standardizing regulatory treatment.

Federal gaming rules for two Texas tribes

This bill would make federal tribal gaming law fully apply on the lands of Ysleta del Sur Pueblo and the Alabama-Coushatta Tribe. Their gaming would follow the same federal rules used by other tribes. It would also remove older Texas rules that conflict with these federal rules. If enacted, this could add oversight and compliance steps for tribal gaming operators. The bill does not set a start date and does not provide funding.
