Dear Bureau of Indian Affairs:

This letter is to express my support of the Koi Nation of Northern California and its application to the Federal Bureau of Indian Affairs to establish trust land in Sonoma County, California.

Approval of this trust land application would make it possible for the Koi Nation to exercise its rights as a federally recognized Tribe and develop a gaming facility that would provide more than 1,000 new, good paying jobs as well as create a substantial, positive economic impact in Sonoma County and other nearby communities.

The Koi Nation has suffered the effects of broken promises by the government and dispossession of its tribal lands for 150 years. This trust land application is an opportunity for the BIA to right these wrongs and enable the Tribe to exercise its inherent, sovereign rights and its ability to build a stable economic base for itself and its members.

We believe the Koi Nation and its partner on this project, Global Gaming Solutions, both have a proven record of being committed community partners.  We believe both organizations are committed to working with our region to develop this property in a way that is both environmentally sound and economically viable.

We would appreciate your expedited approval of this application.

Support a new world-class gaming resort and casino and help Native Americans build their future
