Seminole Indians Involved in the Gambling Issue
The Florida’s state lawmakers aren’t so high when we’re talking about the gambling expansion for the Seminole Indians. When they had to deal with this problem by Gov. Charlie Crist the past session, they fiddled around with a half-hearted effort. They did this only to permit this gambling expansion.
The House and the Senate have decided to agree with this, so the Gov. Charlie Crist had to take the legislators’ idea back to the Seminole Indians.
The outspoken Rep. Bill Galvano affirmed that “They want a counter offer and that’s not what the legislation called for” and also added that they don’t see this as a possibility to try again the negotiation.
In this time, Seminoles are thinking that since there is class III allowed, they have the chance to offer gambling at casinos.
All this time, the Governor Charlie Crist was trying to obtain the compact with the Seminole Indians done for a couple of years and in 2007 he had a great negotiation of a compact with the Seminoles.
