REPORTS TRIBAL GAMING / STATE-BY-STATE
LAWS IN TEXAS PROHIBIT CASINO GAMBLING ALTHOUGH THESE ARE SUPERSEDED BY FEDERAL INDIAN GAMING LAWS AND THERE ARE THREE FEDERALLY
RECOGNISED TRIBES IN THE STATE WHICH CAN OPERATE CASINOS WITH CLASS II GAMING ON RESERVATION LANDS.
Pass (Maverick County); the Naskila Gaming operated by the Alabama Coushatta Tribe of Texas in Livingston and the Speaking Rock Casino operated by the Ysleta del Sur Pueblo in El Paso
All three have battled for years to remain open through various attempts to close down the casinos.
In 2015 Naskila and Speaking Rock were given permission via the NIGC to operate electronic bingo on their reservations. A legal fight began to try to and prevent this and finally in 2022 the Supreme Court approved the operations. Naskila operates around 800 electronic bingo terminals.
Meanwhile a push to bring casinos to Texas failed this year after it fell just short of the required two- thirds majority to push the bill through during a House vote.

P52 WIRE / PULSE / INSIGHT / REPORTS
Las Vegas Sands Corporation and other casino giants have been backing the casino legislation proposals which would add casino licences to existing horse and dog racing licences to create eight resort style casinos for the state. If Texas allowed gaming it will attract players who currently head out of state to Oklahoma, Louisiana and New Mexico to gamble.
Meanwhile a sports betting proposal backed by a coalition of Texan pro-sports teams and betting companies did get voted in the House but died in the state Senate in June with supporters saying they will make another attempt in 2025.
WISCONSIN
Tere are no commercial casinos in Wisconsin but 11 tribes operate 24 casinos.
Despite no sports betting law Wisconsin, in a similar way to New Mexico, can operate sports betting by virtue of amendments to their compacts.
Te tribes can negotiate with the state to change their existing compacts to allow for sports betting and to date only three such amendments have become active.
At the end of 2021 the state opened its first legal sports betting facility at the Oneida Casino in Green Bay and this was followed by agreements with Forest County Potawatomi and St. Croix Chippewa in 2022.
In-person sports betting can now be offered at six casinos owned by the three tribes. Potawatomi plans to construct a new facility for sports betting and currently hosts via a temporary location with 17 self-service kiosks or via the counters at the Wilwaukee casino with plans to install further kiosks at its sister casino at the Carter Hotel in Wabeno.
St. Croix operates three casinos in Turtle Lake, Danbury and Hertel and is installing sports betting at all three locations.
Online sports betting can only be offered on reservation lands. Oneida, which owns two casinos and about eight truck stops in the Green Bay area, does also offer a sport betting app.
