Carcieri v. Salazar is a significant U.S. Supreme Court case from 2009 that addressed the federal government's authority to take land into trust for tribes recognized after 1934. The ruling determined that only tribes that were 'under federal jurisdiction' at the time the Indian Reorganization Act was enacted in 1934 could have land taken into trust. This case has had lasting implications on contemporary issues surrounding tribal sovereignty and economic development.
