Report shows wide support
of Indian gaming
Two reports comm issioncd by The
George Washington University Na
tional Indian Policy Center (NIPC)
show that not only docs a vast major
ity of the public support the right of
Indian tribes to operate gaming fa
cilities on their reservations, but that
revenues from those facilities sig
nificantly benefit the communities
surrounding the reservations.
Both reports, "Public Opinion
Strongly Supports Indian Gaming,"
prepared by federal Indian law ex
pert Glenn M. Fcldman, and "The
Economic Impact of Reservation
Based Gaming Activities," prepared
by Robert Robinson of the Center for
Applied Research, are available from
the NIPC, 2136 Pennsylvania Ave.
NW, Washington, D.C. 20052, (202)
676-4401.
The Feldman report is based on
1992 public opinion polls conducted
in Washington, Arizona, California
and Kansas, as well as a national
survey by Harris Poll (which ex
cluded residents of Nevada and New
Jersey). AH the polls show that, on
the average, people living off reser
vations support Indian gaming much
more than they do general gaming
throughout the state. In the Harris
Poll, Indian gaming was supported
by an approval rating of more than 2
to 1. (68 percent for, 28 percent
against). However, 51 percent of the
same respondents disapproved of
gaming by the state.
The report also includes reasons
given by the respondents in Wash
ington for supporting Indian gam
who will bring in local business ex
perts (bankers, lawyers, accountants,
etc.) to address all the business areas
needed to successfully start and op
erate a small business. Topics in the
workshop will include:
How to get started in business.
Marketing and promoting your
business.
Pricing your products or ser
vices. Loans, money management and
enter juried competitions, how to
package a painting once its selected,
record keeping, goals for your art
growth and a special introduction
about photographing your own art
work. Those interested in attending
this workshop please call Roxanne
Casey at 553-3331 by May 10th to
sign up; materials and space will be
limited.
This Art Show will give Tribal
Artists & Craftspeople the opportu
nity to have their work viewed by a
vast audience that visits our museum
daily for approximately four months.
It will also help to educate the public
about the artists from our rcservauon
and the different types of "Arts &
Crafts" we have to offer.
Application guidelines:
1. Applicant must be a tribal
member of The Confederated Tribes
of Warm Springs Indian Reservation.
2. Submit no more than five slides
of your work.
3. All work submitted must be

ing. Over 80 percent cited cither eco
nomic considerations jobs, rev
enue and reduction of welfare or
tribal sovereignty. Fcldman points
out that those were two of the reasons
given by Congress in enacting the
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act in
1988.
Estimates for Indian gaming rev
enues and how they are expanded is
the focus of the Robinson report.
Using estimated 1992 gaining rev
enues from exiting facilities, the re
port shows that much of the revenues
go to expenses related to manage
ment, operations and general em
ployment, all which are typically
spent on both Indians and non-Indians.
Gaming revenues are also a
source of capital for tribal govern
ments. The report points out that even
these funds can have a direct state
wide impact as the Mashantuckct
Pequot Tribe annually gives $1 mil
lion to a Connecticut tourism promo
tional campaign.
While the money earned by non
Indian employees, contractors and
suppliers certainly benefits the stales,
the report shows that a considerable
amount of Indian wages is also spent
off the reservations. The Center's
data reflects that a minimum of 50
percent of Indian household income,
regardless of how it was earned, is
spent off-reservation. Additionally,
25 percent of those expenditures are
subject to state or local sales tax. The
report estimates that in 1990 Indian
people living on reservations directly
contributed more than $21 million in ;
state sales taxes alone.
