	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 2102, as introduced, Roger Hernández. Tribal gaming.
   Existing federal law, the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988,

compacts for the purpose of authorizing certain types of gaming on
Indian lands within a state. The California Constitution authorizes

ratification by the Legislature. Existing law ratifies a number of
tribal-state gaming compacts between the State of California and
specified Indian tribes.
   This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to enact
legislation related to tribal gaming in California.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  It is the intent of the Legislature to enact
legislation related to tribal gaming in California.
