The Mashantucket (Western) Pequot Tribal Nation is a federally recognized northeastern woodland tribe located at one of America’s oldest Indian reservations – Mashantucket – in Southeastern Connecticut. As pioneers of the Indian Gaming casino industry, the history of the Mashantucket Pequots unfolds one of America’s greatest come-back stories, and is featured at the Tribe’s world renowned Mashantucket Pequot Museum. Today, the Tribe owns and operates one of the largest resort casino destinations in North America, Foxwoods Resort Casino, along with a variety of businesses ventures, including but not limited to a world-class golf course, luxury spa, Pequot Pharmaceutical Network, and Pequot Plus Health Benefit Services. As one of Connecticut’s highest revenue contributors and largest employers, the Mashantucket Pequots have provided more than $4 billion in slot revenue to the state through a first-of-its-kind compact agreement, established in 1993. Likewise, the Tribe has contributed hundreds of millions in donations and sponsorships for the benefit of communities and tribes in need, locally and throughout the U.S.
