Indian gaming in California brings in an estimated $7 billion each year. Proposition 48 is a referendum on a 2013 agreement between the state and the North Fork Indian tribe allowing a casino to be built off Highway 99 in Madera. Voting “yes” would uphold the legislation ratifying the agreement, while a “no” vote would overrule it.

Guests:

Cheryl Schmit, director of Stand Up for California, which represents the No on Prop. 48 campaign

John Maier, lawyer with Maier Pfeffer Kim Geary & Cohen LLP, which represents the Yes on 48 campaign

I. Nelson Rose, professor of law at Whittier Law School in Costa Mesa and author of "Gambling and the Law"
