Treaties between tribes and the federal government, particularly concerning resource use and environmental conservation, have long been a source of legal contention. Their exact status and attendant rights generate significant tension, especially regarding state obligations.

Recently, an equally divided Supreme Court affirmed states' duty to manage resources consistent with tribal treaty rights. This ruling impacts states like Washington, which has resisted requirements from the Stevens' treaties, affirming tribal salmon fishing rights. The critical question remains: what additional state obligations ensure resource sustainability, especially amidst climate disruption? Consistent enforcement benefits all, illuminating the state's trust duties to its people.
