Bill > HR6017

This resolution approves an amendment to the gaming compact between the Sac and Fox Nation of Missouri (a Native American tribe located in Kansas and Nebraska) and the State of Kansas, specifically concerning sports wagering. The amendment was originally submitted by the Governor to the Joint Committee on State-Tribal Relations on March 20, 2025. By adopting this resolution, the Kansas House of Representatives formally endorses the changes to the existing gaming compact, which likely involves expanding or modifying the tribe's legal authorization to operate sports betting activities within the state's jurisdiction. The resolution represents a formal legislative approval process for intergovernmental agreements related to tribal gaming rights, which typically require legislative consent to take effect.
