The militiamen are demanding the government turn the land over to the "rightful owners." 

 

“Don’t tell me any of these ranchers came across the Bering Strait,” the tribal chairwoman, Charlotte Rodrique, said at a news conference Wednesday. “We were here first,” she added, “we’d like the public to acknowledge that.”

Jarvis Kennedy, a member of the tribal council, put his demand bluntly: “They just need to get the hell out of here.”

 

"Though the wildlife refuge is not part of the Burns Paiute reservation, tribe members consider it sacred ancestral land. The Paiute are guaranteed access to the refuge for activities important to their heritage — hunting, fishing, gathering reeds for basket weaving and precious seeds. The tribe is also working with the Bureau of Land Management to preserve its archaeological sites."
