Confederated Tribes of Umatilla
The Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation's homeland once encompassed 6.4 million acres in northeastern Oregon and southeastern Washington. As a result of the 1855 Treaty with the U.S. Government and subsequent federal legislation, the present-day reservation consists of 172,000 acres. Despite ceding millions of acres, CTUIR reserved their sovereign authority and "the right to govern, to determine our destiny, and to control all persons, land, water, resources and activities, free of all outside interference throughout our homeland."
