Last Tuesday the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs formally recognized a small
tribe from Long Island. The tribe celebrated with song and prayers when they
received the news.
It has taken decades for Shinnecock's tribal leaders to obtain the recognition.
The next step is to have a 30 comment period listed in the Federal Register.
After the 30 days, permanent recognition is expected.
Ancestral records and historical documents were reviewed by the Bureau of Indian
Affairs. This had to be done before to determine if the Shinnecocks met the
criteria for recognition. In 2007 the tribe was hopeful to bypass the process by
seeking recognition in federal court. However that was rejected by the judge.
Currently there are 500 Sinnecock members living on their reservation in
Southampton. The reservation is 1,200 acres. An additional 700 tribal members
live in other areas.
Possible casino plans are being developed. However state and federal governments
need to give approval before the Sinnecock casino can happen. The federal
recognition will help the tribe when obtaining funding for the project.
