Schwarzenegger courts tribes he criticized
California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (R) is reaching out to tribes across
California as he prepares for his upcoming re-election bid.
Schwarzenegger made personal calls to the leaders of the Agua Caliente Band of
Cahuilla Indians and the Morongo Band of Mission Indians, The San Diego
Union-Tribune reported. The governor angered the tribes by calling them special
interests, accused them of ripping off the state and trying to muscle them into
signing new compacts.
Schwarzenegger also plans to meet with the California Nations Indian Gaming
Association, the state's largest inter-tribal organization, and the Tribal
Alliance of Sovereign Indian Nations. CNIGA members have publicly opposed many
of Schwarzenegger's policies.
