DeLay Delights DeLottery

Boston Globe: Donations Tied to Delay Trip. An Indian tribe and a gambling services company made donations to a Washington public policy group that covered most of the cost of a $70,000 trip to Britain by House majority leader Tom DeLay, his wife, two aides, and two lobbyists in mid-2000, two months before DeLay helped kill legislation opposed by the tribe and the company.

I’ve added eLottery contracts to the site, including a Management Agreement for the National Indian Lottery. I can understand the Korea-US Exchange Council paying DeLay to take a trip to South Korea on a fact-finding mission, but what’s the connection between Indian gambling and Great Britain?
