'Oneida gaming revenue provides our community with the funds for critical programs and services, as well as meet the vital needs of our people,' the gaming general manager for the Oneida Casino, Louise Cornelius, said during a press conference Tuesday afternoon. 'It was extremely difficult to entertain the thought of closing our doors.'

Barbara Webster, public relations director for the Oneida Nation, said gaming revenue supplements a number of social services.
Gaming revenue funds public safety and policing on the reservation in both Brown and Outagamie counties. Revenue also supports programs in education, the clinic, the nursing home, and transit program, Webster said. To combat the spread of COVID-19, the transit program is running only for people to travel to work and medical appointments.

This lost funding made the decision to close the casino difficult, officials said.
The Oneida Nation government worked with other tribal governments, local governments, and the state government to make its decision. According to its website, the tribe also reviewed the closing of other casinos in the U.S., including those in Las Vegas and Atlantic City.
'Because we have such a large operation, the tribe, it was difficult to get all our ducks in a row,' Webster said. 'It was very difficult to get every facet of our government, our programs, and our businesses all in alignment so we can make public announcements.'
All employees will be given paid time off during the shutdown. Some employees will be working after closure to wrap up operations to meet accountability and reporting requirements in accordance with the casino's gaming compact with the state.

'Television gets a little boring; I'm probably not going to quarantine myself, instead I might have to travel to find a casino that is open.'The casino will enforce social distancing measures while it remains open.
Hill said they would remove chairs from the slot bank so people are not allowed to sit elbow to elbow. They will also reconsider the types of games allowed on the gaming floor to adhere to social distancing standards.
Soon after the state of Wisconsin declared a public health emergency last week, the Oneida Nation declared a State of Public Health Emergency March 12 to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Though there are no confirmed cases in the Oneida community, the public health emergency declaration gives the Oneida Nation access to potential funding, assistance, and resources if needed.
This declaration includes the closure of the Congregate Meal Site that serves meals to the elderly, no visitors to the Anna John Resident Centered Care Community unless under emergency circumstances, and increased disinfection of work areas and public areas. There are also restrictions on non-local travel for its employees.
The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported Monday the Potawatomi Hotel & Casino will suspend operations indefinitely starting 5 p.m. Tuesday due to the spread of COVID-19 in Wisconsin. Ho-Chunk Gaming in Madison closed at 7 a.m. Tuesday, with plans to re-open on April 1. All 26 casinos in the state followed with announcements to close Tuesday.
As of Tuesday afternoon, there are more than 5,850 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the U.S., according to Johns Hopkins University.
