It appears not - as it applies to discrimination... - MojaveMeg Jun 18, 17:51 3
- Interesting. The Hard Rock chain is owned by the Seminole tribe. I can see this being a problem. -- nm - Mop Jun 18, 18:07 2
  - I'd guess the law only applies on tribal land, not on any businesses outside of that. -- nm - MojaveMeg Jun 18, 18:14 1
    - I think they got all the favorable employment laws because the PtB in Washington DC thought it would make them forget about the 150 year old treaties - Trish Targaryen Jun 18, 19:18
I believe most if not all do. BUT there could be tribal laws that supercede federal ones. -- nm - peglegpete Jun 18, 17:15
