How can someone advocate for changes to the rules that govern tribal criminal jurisdiction? Furthermore, how did the McBride decision and Kagama case influence tribal criminal jurisdiction? Additionally, why is it important to advocate for changes regarding the Violence Against Women Act Reauthorization Act? And how does Public Law 280 impact tribal criminal jurisdiction?

example: "It is important to advocate for the passage of federal statutes overturning Oliphantand theMcBratney line so that tribes could exercise criminal jurisdiction over all persons in their Indian Country, and non-P.L. 280 states would have no criminal jurisdiction in Indian Country,"
