The Trump administration has proposed modifications to the National Historic Preservation Act, according to NPR National.
Oklahoma tribes have expressed concerns that these changes could jeopardize historic sites important to tribal nations nationwide.
Specifically, they warn that ancestral lands located in Ohio could be endangered if the proposed legal adjustments are implemented.
The tribes' concerns highlight the potential impact of federal policy changes on the preservation of culturally significant sites for Native American communities.
