Tribes sue Oklahoma over state prosecutions of tribal members for hunting and fishing on tribal land, citing sovereignty and the McGirt ruling.
The Chickasaw, Choctaw, and Cherokee Nations have sued Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt and state agencies over the state’s prosecution of tribal members for hunting and fishing on tribal lands, arguing it violates tribal sovereignty and the 2020 McGirt Supreme Court decision.
The tribes say state enforcement actions targeting legally protected activities undermine their rights and self-governance.
The dispute intensifies a broader conflict between tribal nations and the state, with Attorney General Gentner Drummond opposing the prosecutions and demanding ODWC halt citations, while the governor’s office maintains state authority.
Internal divisions within the ODWC commission persist over legal guidance and next steps, as the legal battle over jurisdiction and tribal rights continues.
Las tribus demandan a Oklahoma por los enjuiciamientos estatales de miembros tribales por cazar y pescar en tierras tribales, citando la soberanía y el fallo de McGirt.
