Mohegan Chairman Heads Malloy PAC Fundraiser.

Mohegan Tribal Council chairman Bruce “Two Dogs” Boszum will host a $750 per person luncheon for Governor Dannel P. Malloy’s political action committee, Prosperity for Connecticut. Guests will gather at the Mohegan Sun casino on February 3rd to join the special guest of the day, Malloy.

Gaming issues will garner considerable attention in the legislative session that begins on February 8th as states ponder expanding adding online betting to their gaming portfolios. Under Connecticut’s compact with the state’s two casino-owning tribes, the Mohegans and the Mashantucket Pequots enjoy the exclusive right to operate casino games in the state. Reaching an agreement with the tribes is seen as a prerequisite to opening the spigot of Internet gambling. Negotiations can be more congenial when accompanied by a fundraising event held by one side for the benefit of the other.
