New York - The Onondaga Nation filed their historic Land Rights Action on March
11, 2005, seeking that the federal courts acknowledge the illegal
taking of their land, and seeking "justice, reconciliation and
healing" with their neighbors. Their case was dismissed on September
22, 2010. On February 28, leaders of the Onondaga Nation and
Haudenosaunee Confederacy traveled to Washington, DC to announce the
filing of the appeal of the Onondaga Land Rights Action. The Two Row
Wampum Renewal Campaign is an effort to take their case to the
people of New York State.
