Proposes a local constitutional amendment for Macon County to allow bingo to be played on electronic machines approved by the National Indian Gaming Commission under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act and run by Native American tribes in Alabama. It also says certain state gaming laws would not apply to these bingo games if operated under Macon County Sheriff's rules.
