Our Tribal community is being called to stand together this Thursday, October 8 at 12:00 PM at the Massachusetts State House as lawmakers consider language that could authorize so-called Historical Horse Racing (HHR) machines.

It is not something that can be honored when convenient and set aside when powerful interests want something different. It is inherent to who we are as a Tribal Nation.
