A new study from the Minnesota Indian Gaming Association looks at the impact of tribal gaming for the first time in seven years. According to the study, tribal casinos employed more than 10,000 people statewide in 2023, about 70 percent of whom worked full time jobs.
The report also found tribal casinos in Minnesota purchased more than $600 million in goods and services for ongoing operations and more than half of that amount was purchased from Minnesota vendors.
In total, tribal casinos generate $1.7 billion in economic activity for the state.
MPR News Native News reporter Melissa Olson broke down the details of the report with Minnesota Now host Nina Moini.
