California AB221 establishes the Tribal Nation Grant Fund for nongaming and limited-gaming tribes.

AB221 amends the Government Code to establish the Tribal Nation Grant Fund in the State Treasury. The fund is for the receipt and deposit of moneys received by the state from Indian tribes pursuant to tribal-state gaming compacts and class III gaming secretarial procedures. The fund aims to facilitate tribal self-governance and improve the quality of life of tribal people. The California Gambling Control Commission administers the fund. The Tribal Nation Grant Panel awards grants from the fund to eligible tribes. Grants can be for specific purposes or as equal shares.
