Summary: The Lac Courte Oreilles Band of Lake Superior Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin opposes the CFTC's proposal to authorize the use of futures markets for sports betting. They argue that such "event contracts" are illegal gambling, violate the Commodity Exchange Act, and encroach upon the sovereign rights of tribal and state governments to regulate gaming.
