            (1) in paragraph (1) by striking ``lands within the State

            (2) by redesignating paragraph (2) as paragraph (3); and
            (3) by inserting after paragraph (1) the following:
            ``(2) Gaming prohibition.--Any real property obtained by 
        the Tribes as part of a land claim settlement approved by the 
        United States shall not be eligible, or used, for any class II 
        gaming or class III gaming under the Indian Gaming Regulatory
