Grand Ronde Reservation Act Amendment: Gaming Restrictions on Acquired Lands

This act amends the Grand Ronde Reservation Act, specifying that certain newly acquired tribal lands cannot be used for gaming activities. This aims to regulate economic activities on these specific areas, impacting potential gaming revenue sources for the tribes.
Key points
The new provisions specifically apply to 84 acres of land known as the “Thompson Strip”.
Any real property obtained by the Tribes as part of a land claim settlement cannot be used for Class II or Class III gaming.
The act clarifies that these amendments do not enlarge, confirm, adjudicate, affect, or modify any existing treaty rights of federally recognized Indian Tribes.
