Description

Gov. Tina Kotek in late May signed a proclamation to return civil jurisdiction to the tribes, aiming to undo a 73-year federal law that took away federal legal resources from most tribes located in Oregon without their consent.

The Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation is on track to regain control over civil legal matters on its tribal land.
