SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) in 2002, the voters in the State of Arizona approved 
        Proposition 202, the Indian Gaming Preservation and Self-
        Reliance Act;
            (2) to obtain the support of Arizona voters to approve 
        Proposition 202, the Indian tribes within Arizona agreed to 
        limit the number of casinos within the State and in particular 
        within the Phoenix metropolitan area; and
            (3) this Act preserves the agreement made between the 
        Indian tribes and the Arizona voters until the expiration of 
        the gaming compacts authorized by Proposition 202.
