Abstract
Although they are considered sovereign states, Indian tribes have, throughout American history, been under the broad plenary power of Congress. Unhappy with this federal control, the states have consistently tried to enforce their laws on the reservations. This Note examines the states' attempt to regulate and forbid casinos on Indian land, and discusses the struggle of the tribes to exist as true sovereign nations.
