US Supreme Court Upholds Tribal Lands

Today we celebrate a legal and moral victory that brings to our Tribe justice that has been very long overdue.  The United States Supreme Court announced that it would not hear the appeal requested by a small group of Taunton residents who have challenged our right to our Reservation for nearly a decade.  With this final legal victory, we secure the future for the generations who come after us, and we honor our ancestors who continued the fight to have ancestral land returned to us.  With this victory, we will be able to fully exercise our sovereignty to provide for our people and to preserve our culture and traditions.

Tribe Releases Statement After Macy's Day ...

It's unfortunate that we are not focused on the beautiful display of our culture and history at the Macy’s Day Parade but rather on the actions of an individual tribal citizen. We want to make it very clear that the Tribe takes no stance on the conflicts overseas. Our Tribal Nation remains focused on the issues we face on our ancestral homeland. While we cannot speak for an individual's actions, his actions were not a Tribal decision. Our governing tribal body, along with the other tribal citizens on the float, were not involved with his actions.
