Summary:

"So almost 20 years after Congress clarified that all tribes should be treated equally, we are here again today because a Supreme Court decision in 2009, Carcieri v. Salazar, has once again created two classes of tribes. The Supreme Court narrowly defined the tribes that could have taken land into trust as only those tribes under Federal jurisdiction in 1934. This decision reversed what had been 80 years of Federal policy to restore land holdings and strengthen tribal governments"--Page 2
