In an effort to increase the state\u2019s portion of the money from the Indian tribes, he attempted to alter the terms of the agreements. The Governor claimed that the 2004 compact was already over its expiration date but that all compacts were automatically renewed following their expiration, making his claims ineffective.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2019, tensions between the Governor and tribal elders have become worse, and this most recent court fight has only made matters worse. The severe criticism Stitt received from certain Republican party members and his party colleagues sparked rumors that Stitt would not be the person handling future discussions with tribes.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Oklahoma\u2019s Thriving Gambling Industry and Tribal Contributions<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>With more than 130 casinos of varying sizes and configurations, from little annex-style establishments atop petrol stations to opulent resorts and hotels, Oklahoma has become a well-known gambling powerhouse.
