What language do the Tulalip Tribe speak? We are one of the Coast Salish Tribes of Puget Sound. Tulalip is a place where the government set up a reservation for the Snohomish, Snoqualmie, Skykomish, and other allied tribes and bands signatory to the Treaty of Point Elliott.
Gaming has been the big money-maker, helping the tribes amass nearly $1 billion in assets, accountant Todd Menenberg testified midway through the trial, just over a week ago. The reservation now comprises the western half of the Marysville-Tulalip community, which was divided by the 20th-century construction of Interstate 5. The Tulalip people settled onto reservation lands after signing the Point Elliott Treaty with the former Washington Territory on January 22, 1855.
