Nearly 10,000 tribal citizens will have to pay Oklahoma state income taxes after all.

After the Supreme Court's Ruling on tribal jurisdiction in 2020, about 9,200 tribal members in the state claimed that the ruling meant that they no longer had to pay state taxes. But the Oklahoma Tax Commission says that ruling only applies to major crimes and they are still required to pay state income taxes.

Governor Kevin Stitt's Office said the tribal members who claimed the exemptions would have cost the state $75 million every year.
