TAHLEQUAH â Leaders from the Cherokee and Chickasaw nations are endorsing what they call narrow federal legislation that would authorize tribal-state compacting on criminal jurisdiction.
The bill, which was expected to be introduced in Congress on May 11, addresses âongoing jurisdictional challengesâ in the wake of a 2020 ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court in McGirt v. Oklahoma.
âWhen it comes to McGirt â the most monumental Indian Country case in generations and one thatâs going to take a great deal of resources and energy â we need more options,â Cherokee Nation Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr. said during a May 10 press briefing. âWe need the ability to do what weâve done so well for so many years, which is to cooperate.â

As the Covid-19 swept through Oklahoma, officials with the Cherokee Nation said that at times, they had a hard time sourcing proper personal protective equipment for health workers, citizens and others.
Now, the tribe – the largest in the U.S. – has created its own facilities to manufacture PPE so that it can provide the equipment to Cherokee Nation citizens and non-citizens alike.
