Yakama
The Yakama, formerly Yakima, is a Native American group with nearly 10,851 members, living in Washington state. Yakama people today are enrolled in the federally recognized tribe, the Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakama Nation. The Yakama Indian Reservation, along the Yakima River, covers an area of approximately 1.2 million acres. Today the nation is governed by the Yakama Tribal Council, which consists of representatives of 14 tribes and bands. Many Yakama people engage in ceremonial, subsistence, and commercial fishing for salmon, steelhead, and sturgeon in the Columbia River and its tributaries within land ceded by the tribe to the United States. Their right to fish is protected by treaties and has been re-affirmed in late 20th-century court cases such as United States v. Washington and United States v. Oregon.
