Oregon Tribal Cultural Task Force Reestablished

(Salem, OR) -- Oregon Governor Tina Kotek is re-establishing the Task Force on Oregon Tribal Cultural Items. Schools, universities and state agencies across the state have tribal cultural items. In 2017, a task force was formed to create an inventory of the items. In 2020, the work was paused because of the pandemic. The task force is now being restarted. Kotek says, "Tribes should have access to information about cultural items held in storage or on display." They'll develop a process to find the items, determine who they belong to, who should have them and how they should be stored.
