Opponents of Proposition 48, a referendum on a state-tribal compact that would allow a Madera tribal casino, have taken to the airwaves with TV ads contending that the measure would set a precedent for off-reservation gambling. A yes vote on the measure upholds the compact; a no vote rejects it.
One of the ads features Mark Macarro, the chairman of the Temecula-area Pechanga Band of Luiseño Indians, one of California’s most politically influential tribes. The tribe has contributed more than $1 million to the No on 48 effort, which has raised $15.3 million this year compared to the $470,000 collected by the measure’s supporters. Table Mountain Rancheria in Friant, which operates a casino about 26 miles from the proposed casino site, has put up more than $10 million to defeat the referendum.
Mark Macarro: “More than a decade ago, we promised to limit casinos to existing tribal land. And you voted overwhelmingly to approve tribal gaming based on that promise....
SACBEE: In any event, nothing in the previous propositions restricted the behavior of the federal government, which has since designated the land in question as tribal. The U.S. Department of the Interior placed in trust 305 acres off Highway 99 in Madera for the purposes of allowing the North Fork Rancheria of Mono Indians to build a casino there. The decision effectively added the land to the tribe’s existing reservation near Yosemite.

Well most disenrolled like marcy ?
Mark has been caught lying numerous times, and still the powers that be support him.
Why doesn't he mind the white men stealing from his tribe's casino, instead of worrying about another tribe's business? The original gaming compacts called for a maximum of 2000 machines, but it's acceptable to go back on this "promise"? Better mind your manners.
Mark promised to follow and enforce tribal bylaws and it's constitution but he disenrolled tribal members against tribal bylaws. His brother is the head of the tribal legal even though he is not a lawyer. His brother was caught using the tribal credit cards for his own personal use and was not fired. Mark and his brother have skimmed money off the disenrolled per capita of the disenrolled Mark brother John Macarro wife is the accountant for Pechanga. Mark wrote a Pechanga water bill asking senate and congress to take away the water rights of the disenrolled even though they are allottees still on their allotment. this was in order to sell the water rights away with the money going to the instructor of tribal government meaning Mark. and if you want to see him lie look up KNBC with out a tribe he is asked question's on the disenrollment and he cant even answer them straight up. I wonder if the tribe know how much he has spent on the commercial for prop 48.
Mark Macarro speaking on prop 48 is like Charles Manson speaking on pro death row for criminals.
If that commercial come on and he remote is near I change the channel. The only thing I like about it is the Bolo Tie he is wearing. It is sad that the majority of CA voters do not reolize what kind of snake he is, nor do then know his toung is like a snakes. It was forked from birth and what it spews is nothing but half truths and lies. Our ancestors inured a hardship we will never know or understand. Now they are disrespected and demeaned by the behavior of a few who have let greed, pride, and covetousness be their guiding force. The people suffer, even those who still are in the tribe. Sure they have money and can buy stuff, but they are lesser in spirit and life.
Yep ! and throw Thunder Valley and Feather Falls chairman into the lying mix.
Vote Yes on 48.
There was an article today where an editorial lied about Tule tribes position on 48. It is on INDIANZ.COM. The liars and tricksters are out in full force.
Don't fall for their lies !!
vote yes on 48.
I hope the voting public see through Table Mountain and Pechanga's greed guided commercial- not all tribes are against Prop 48. Nothing lasts forever. Iron Lies Shorty should shed a tear like his relative Iron Eyes Cody, maybe then he would garner more support in his fight against another tribe's sovereignty.
Wonder if Mark's newest wife knows when he's lying... or if she coaches him on lying?
his wife should support his lies, or tell him to correct his lies. either way she is supporting a lier. love is lovely.
Mark's wife was on the Jack Ambroff lobby firm before he was caught with his hand in the cookie jar.
Jack's hand was caught in Mark's wife's cookie jar?
Hollie Macarro ? They been married a long time ?
Mark only been married to Hollie after the Prop 1 A before that he was married to a Murphy Butches sister.
Bad Actor is allowed to represent the Band again? Sad Sad days, that liars that try to hide behind sovereignty are allowed to be exposed again. If you had been exposed by the Bad Actors club, oh wait he is still Spokesperson.
