I spoke with the news about what the tribes might do after SCOTUS refused to hear the Muscogee Nation’s case about Native people and state taxation. It’s a great issue and they’re strongly in the right and hopefully the fight goes on!

A tribal attorney says a case challenging Oklahoma tax law may not be over just yet after the U.S. Supreme Court upheld a state court ruling requiring tribal members to pay state income taxes.

Alicia Stroble argues she’s exempt because she’s a tribal member who lives and works on Muscogee Nation land. The Muscogee Nation says it’s looking for a remedy in federal court.

I appreciate being quoted as an authority on federal Indian law in this story on an important tribal sovereignty case in federal court against state overreach in Oklahoma! It’s a shame Tribes always have to fight to enforce their sovereign treaty rights!

The long, complex and disputed tail of the McGirt tribal sovereignty case continues in federal court with a challenge against state prosecutors.
