From Indianz:
Security guards at the casino owned by the Saginaw Chippewa Tribe of Michigan have dropped efforts to unionize.
The International Union Security Police & Fire Professionals of America petitioned the National Labor Relations Board for a vote at the Soaring Eagle Casino & Resort. But the effort was dropped for an unexplained reason, The Mt. Pleasant Morning Sun reported. Housekeeping staff at the casino tried to organize last year. But they voted 2-1 against unionization.
Here are the materials in the Soaring Eagle v. Teamsters case:
Saginaw Chippewa Labor Ordinance
Nick Reo’s recent post on online posts written in response to the Inland settlement reminded me of a dissertation by Scott G. Sochay, “Newspaper Images of Native Americans: Michigan Newspaper Coverage of Treaties and Compacts Affecting Indians in the Territory and State of Michigan” (1998). The diss. covers the 1819Treaty of Saginaw, the 1836 Treaty of Washington, and the 1993 gaming compacts.
It’s a large document, but you can download it here: Sochay Dissertation
