Governor Ron DeSantis commented: “The Seminole Tribe of Florida's new initiative will create jobs, increase tourism, and provide billions in added revenue for our state. “By working together, the Tribe, the state and the federal government achieved a historic legal victory.” “The Seminole Tribe thanks the State of Florida, the US Department of the Interior and the US Department of Justice for defending our Compact,” said Seminole Tribe of Florida chairman Marcellus Osceola Jr. The expansion follows last week’s decision by the US Supreme Court to reject an attempt to block implementation of the Compact. The Seminole Tribe and Seminole Hard Rock plan to launch craps, roulette and sports betting at all six Seminole Casinos, as part of the Gaming Compact signed and approved by the Tribe and the state of Florida in 2021.

The Seminole Tribe of Florida will create over 1,000 new jobs at its land-based casinos through the launch of its expanded gambling offering next month.
