I've received only a few updates for the directory, which was originally published in January 1997. Please send your updates to me. It would be ideal if a revised edition could be published in January 1999, so let's make the deadline for submissions November 1. Please be assured that this information is confidential. Copies of the directory will go ONLY to those who provide their own information.
Help is needed in preparing the directory.
I would like to deepen the Proposition 5 debate. With two decades to experience in American Indian law, I'm opposed to the measure and welcome discussions with neighbors, supporters and community organizations. This measure allows essentially unregulated casinos on all of the 112 reservations in California. With the approval of only two politicians, tribes can expand their land base and foist casinos on local communities without complying with environmental or labor laws. Unregulated casinos are only a short-term fix for the many tiny tribes in California.
