MAY 18, 2000 The Quinault Nation have asked the government to reconsider the federal recognition of the Cowlitz Tribe. The Quinault filed an appeal with the Interior Board of Indian Appeals that claims the Cowlitz have not existed as a tribal entity since the late 19th century. They also argue their membership is only loosely related to the historic Cowlitz tribe. Members of the Cowlitz Tribe hold allotments in 16 percent of the Quinault reservation. Cowlitz representatives say the move by the Quinault is politically motivated. The tribe received federal recognition in February. Get the Story:
