The idea that CNIGA should be drafting or crafting anything that binds other tribes in terms of compact negotiations is pretty transparent to me. It's the big tribes that don't want other tribes to get compacts. They want to control that process.

The state has 20 days to file a response to the suit. That's due in a couple of weeks.
