Gaming Regulatory Commission

The Commission’s primary mission is to regulate gaming activities on Santa Ana Pueblo lands for the purpose of shielding the tribe from organized crime and other corrupting influences; to ensure that the tribe is the primary beneficiaries of gaming revenue; and to assure that gaming is conducted fairly and honestly by both operators and players.
To achieve these goals, the Commission is authorized to conduct investigations; undertake enforcement actions, including the issuance of notices of violation, assessment of civil fines, and/or issuance of closure orders; conduct background investigations; revoke gaming licenses; conduct audits; and review Tribal gaming ordinances.

The Pueblo of Santa Ana Gaming Regulatory Commission was established by Section 8 of the Pueblo of Santa Ana Gaming Ordinance, enacted by the Tribal Council of the Pueblo Santa Ana on/or about the 10th day of December, 1992. The Commission consists of three commissioners appointed by the Tribal Council, for terms of five years each.
