How can the Commission regulate a multi-billion dollar industry on a limited budget?
Although the budget of the Commission has not grown proportionately to the growth of the Indian gaming industry, it is important to note that tribal gaming commissions are the primary regulators of gaming operations. The role of the Commission is to monitor and validate the work of tribal gaming regulators. Further, depending on individual Tribal-State compacts, some states may also play a regulatory role in Indian gaming operations.
