OPINIONS BELOW The decision of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit is set forth in an unpublished memorandum. (Pet. App. 1) The Regional Director’s November 2008 decision in favor of petitioners remaining federally recognized tribal members is unpublished. (Pet. App. 171) The Assistant Secretary’s January 28, 2011, decision and order is unpublished. (Pet. App. 111) The district court’s opinion granting a preliminary injunction in favor of petitioners is unpublished. (Pet. App. 60) The district court’s opinion granting summary judgment in favor of defendants is unpublished. (Pet. App. 6) JURISDICTION The Ninth Circuit’s judgment was entered on September 20, 2016. (Pet. App. 1) This Court has jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1254(1). RELEVANT STATUTORY AND CONSTITUTIONAL PROVISIONS 25 C.F.R. Part 76. This case also involves due process considerations under 5 U.S.C. § 706 and the Fifth Amendment in that Assistant Secretary Echo Hawk’s 2011 decision and order resulted in a loss of citizenship and declassification of petitioners’ Native 2 American Indian status, similar to a denaturalization order. STATEMENT OF THE CASE1 Petitioners’ case involves a recurring theme in Indian Country. Disenrollment of federally recognized tribal members despite final Department of Interior decisions finding individuals eligible for tribal membership. See Aguayo v. Jewell, Docket No. 16-660 filed Nov. 14, 2016. Under 25 C.F.R. Part 76, adopted by the San Pasqual Band of Mission Indians as its enrollment ordinance, the Assistant Secretary had “final and conclusive” authority to determine the Band’s membership. Petitioners were enrolled as members of the Band pursuant to Assistant Secretary–Indian Affairs, Ada Deer’s 1995 final decision that concluded that petitioners’ ancestor, Marcus Sr., was 4/4 degree Indian. Assistant Secretary Deer’s decision adjudicated the petitioners’ rights. Petitioners participated as members of the Band for sixteen years, including holding governmental offices and establishing the Band’s successful casino. In 2008, by a 3-2 vote, the Band’s enrollment committee recommended disenrollment of all Marcus Sr. descendants. In support of its disenrollment recommendation, the committee submitted a baptismal record that purportedly recorded Marcus’ baptism in 1907. The baptismal certificate cited Jose Alto as the child’s

  • The War on Poverty, Lawyers, and the Tribal Sovereignty Movement, 1964-1974
    ‘The Sovereignty that Seemed Lost Forever’: The War on Poverty, Lawyers, and the Tribal Sovereignty Movement, 1964-1974 Aurélie A. Roy Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2017 © 2017 Aurélie A. Roy All rights reserved ‘The Sovereignty that Seemed Lost Forever’1: The War on Poverty, Lawyers, and the Tribal Sovereignty Movement, 1964-1974 Aurélie A. Roy ABSTRACT Relying on interviews of Indian rights lawyers as well as archival research, this collective history excavates a missing page in the history of the modern tribal sovereignty movement. At a time when vocal Native American political protests were raging from Washington State, to Alcatraz Island, to Washington, D.C., a small group of newly graduated lawyers started quietly resurrecting Indian rights through the law. Between 1964 and 1974, these non-Indian and Native American lawyers litigated on behalf of Indians, established legal assistance programs as part of the War on Poverty efforts to provide American citizens with equal access to a better life, and founded institutions to support the protection of tribal rights. In the process, they would also inadvertently create both a profession and an academic field—Indian law as we know it today— which has since attracted an increasing number of lawyers, including Native Americans. This story is an attempt at reconstituting a major dimension of the rise of tribal sovereignty in the postwar era, one that has until now remained in the shadows of history: how Indian rights, considered obsolete until the 1960s, gained legitimacy by seizing a series of opportunities made available in part through ‘accidents’ of history.

  • Assistant Secretary of Indian Affairs Larry Echo Hawk to Conclude Successful Tenure at Interior Secretary Salazar Commends Echo Hawk for His Leadership, Service
    Date: April 9, 2012 Contact: Adam Fetcher (DOI) 202-208-6416 Nedra Darling (ASIA) 202-219-4152 Assistant Secretary of Indian Affairs Larry Echo Hawk to Conclude Successful Tenure at Interior Secretary Salazar Commends Echo Hawk for his leadership, service WASHINGTON – Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar announced today that Assistant Secretary for Indian Affairs Larry Echo Hawk will be leaving the Department of the Interior after nearly 3 years of leadership. Echo Hawk, an enrolled member of the Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma, will resign his position effective April 27, 2012 to assume a leadership position in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. “Larry has done an extraordinary job at Interior, opening a new chapter in our nation-to-nation relationship with American Indian and Alaska Natives tribal governments and carrying out President Obama’s vision for empowering Indian nations,” Salazar said. “During his tenure, the Department accelerated the restoration of tribal homelands, improved public safety in tribal communities, resolved century-old water disputes, made critical investments in education, and reached many more milestones that are helping Indian nations pursue the future of their choosing. We thank Larry for his exemplary leadership and wish him all the best as he begins a new chapter in his life.” “The opportunity to participate in remedying the negative perceptions of the federal government in Indian Country was a formidable challenge at first, but I am proud to say that I have served my country as an agent for change here in Indian Affairs,” said Echo Hawk. “I believe at the end of this Administration, the work we accomplished will leave a lasting legacy for American Indian and Alaska Natives.

On the Wings of My Fathers Larry EchoHawk Echo Hawk: that is the English translation of the name given to my great-grandfather, a Pawnee Indian who did not speak English. He was born in the mid-1800s in what is now called Nebraska. Among the Pawnee, the hawk is a symbol of a warrior. My great-grandfather was known for his bravery, but he was also known as a quiet man who did not speak of his own deeds. As members of his tribe spoke of his good deeds, it was like an “echo” from one side of the village to the other. Thus he was named Echo Hawk. According to accounts of the first white men who encountered the Pawnee people, the Pawnee were estimated to number about 20,000. Under the laws of the United States they had the right to occupy 23 million acres of land on the plains of Nebraska.
