Seminole Tribe of Florida used federal COVID funds for high-stakes raffle; Did chairman's son win $1 million?

The Seminole Tribe of Florida used at least $3 million in federal COVID relief money to stage a high-stakes raffle as an incentive to get tribal members as young as 12 vaccinated.

Flyers pitched the raffle as the “Shot of a Lifetime!” and announced that anyone who was fully vaccinated and provided proof by Oct. 4, 2021 would be entered into the drawing to be held the next day.
