  • Treaties say nothing about sales taxes
    The tribes say honor the treaties. Do you know what clause in what treaty is not being honored? If you look for a clause saying they don't have to remit sales and excise tax, good luck. Not only doesn't it exist, but the implication of it giving all weight to the tribal arguments and favoring the tribe as if they did not understand the meaning of treaties they made still resulted in the U.S. Supreme Court ruling five times that states have the authority to collect taxes on tribal sales to people that are not members of that tribe.
