Oklahoma, and ongoing land management issues, including tribal-federal costewardship of places like Bears Ears National Monument and elsewhere; the numerous policy initiatives of the Biden administration aimed at reshaping the federal-tribal relationship; and important circuit court decisions related to water rights, the federal government's trust relationship with tribes, and much more.
