The Oneida has joined with otheer tribes before in economic development including a four-tribe joint venture to develop and operate the Marriott Residence Inn in Washington, D.C. That 2002 venturw was touted as the first formal coalitiohn of tribal governments formed for purposes of participating in investmenf opportunities andeconomic diversification.
