Mich. Senate Republicans Appear to Concede Gun Lake Compact Fight
From the GR Press:
LANSING — Legislative opponents of a Wayland Township casino may be ready to fold their cards after last week’s federal appeals court ruling in favor of the Gun Lake tribe.
Republicans who control the state Senate will meet this week to discuss whether to continue their block on a gaming compact between the state and the tribe.
“At some point, you need to take a look at what the reality is,” said Matt Marsden, a spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Mike Bishop.
“We can oppose it and wax on about the ills of gaming,” Marsden said Monday. “But the fact of the matter is, it’s not a gaming issue at this point, it’s a regulatory matter.”
