/PRNewswire/ — AGS (NYSE: AGS or “the Company”) CEO

David Lopez

issued the following statement after the announcement of the United States Supreme Court decision siding with certain Tribes in

Texas

(the Tribes at issue are the Ysleta del Sur and

Alabama

and Coushatta Indian Tribes of

Texas

, which operate the Speaking Rock and Naskila Gaming facilities, respectively) to allow bingo gaming on their Tribal lands, without regulatory oversight from the

State of Texas

. The Court’s ruling on Wednesday determined that these Texas Tribes have the autonomy to regulate electronic bingo games on their lands, in compliance with the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (“IGRA”) like most other Tribes in America, regardless of the state’s rules on bingo, which is permitted in the

State of Texas

. While the federal government agreed with the Tribes’ position, the

State of Texas

did not.

“After an extremely long process in the judicial system, I would like to congratulate our Native American business partners and friends on their well-deserved win. This ruling makes it possible for these sovereign Tribes to gain economic freedom and confirms their rights as federally recognized Tribes. AGS stands by our Tribal operator partners as they look to exercise their rights and wish them success in current and future ventures as sovereign Tribes in the

State of Texas

. We are proud to support all our Native American partners throughout the country, and, in particular, these Tribes that have fought so hard and so long in pursuit of their economic freedom.”
