Spilygy Tymoo, yVgrru Springs, Oregon Jgntigry 8, 2014 P^ge 9 Internship opportunities Non-Indian firms concerned about tribal contracting dispute N on-Indian com panies are hoping that the federal' government's refusal to fully fund tribal self-determ ina tion contracts w on't affect their industry. Tribes and Alaska Native corporations have won two m ajor decisions from the U.S. Supreme Court. But the B ureau o f In d ian A ffairs and the Indian Health Ser vice still owe an estimated $2 billion in contract support costs. “Can you imagine telling your landlord, ‘Sorry, I ’m only going to pay you 80 per cent o f the rent this month?’” N oni Manning, the form er fin an ce m an ag er fo r th e Shoshone-Paiute Tribes, one of the tribes involved in the Supreme Court litigation, told The Washington Post. “In the .rest o f the world, a contract is a contract.” N on-Indian interests, in cluding the U.S. Chamber o f Commerce, have supported tribes in their bid to receive full funding for their coft- tracts. T hey fear th a t the government's position could affect th o u san d s o f o th er companies. “T he governm ent’s posi tion would have the effect of making contracts illusory by giving it a b ro ad rig h t to refuse payment at the stated price for services rendered,” the chamber said in a brief to the Suprem e C ourt last year. Even as the BIA and the IHS move slowly to resolve o u ts ta n d in g claim s, th e Obama administration asked Congress for perm ission to impose spending caps on in dividual contracts. The pro posal is opposed by tribes and members o f Congress from both parties. “They are not going to be able to sustain this position either legally or politically,” Rep. Tom Cole (R-Okla.), a m em ber o f the Chickasaw Nation, told the Post o f the proposal. an earlier agreement. T h e new co m p act, a p p ro v ed by law m akers and signed by Gov. Deval Patrick, spells out a variety o f terms including how much in gam bling proceeds Massachusetts would receive should the tribe succeed in its plan to open a resort casino in Taunton. T he state w ould get 17 percent o f gambling revenues if the casino is the only gam bling facility in the southeast f region; and 21 percent if it's the only casino in the state. The tribe must still clear a potentially greater legal hurdle o f securing federal land-in- trust approval. ing more about Indian land issues?
