Four tribes are working to expand off-reservation gambling

MICHIGAN -- Fights are getting underway between groups that are proposing at least 22 new casinos in Michigan.

There are proposals for opening new casinos besides the three now operating in Detroit and others charted by Indian groups around Michigan.

Four tribes are working to expand off-reservation gambling, while two investor groups are seeking to amend the Michigan Constitution to allow more casinos.

There are four proposals for casinos in Romulus and two each in Detroit and Port Huron.
