Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy and the federal government see eye-to-eye when it comes to authorizing the state’s first casino off tribal land.

NBC Connecticut reported that the Federal government is likely to give its blessing to the multi-billion casino project of Mashantucket Pequot and Mohegan tribes in East Windsor after Department of the Interior was seen speaking at an event held at the Mohegan Sun Casino.

This is bad news for MGM who is set to open its multi-billion gambling facility in Springfield, which is just a short drive away from East Windsor.

Tribal Chairman Kevin Brown claimed that Malloy and the federal government are on the same boat when it comes to a third casino in Connecticut.
