Sounds like a really good question for a court to decide.This is interesting. The governor of SD thinks she has any control over the Indian sovereign nations in her state. She doesn't. The checkpoints are on Indian land. Sovereign and separate from the US. The governor has no jurisdiction.
They have the right to prevent people from catching the virus. They have a high rate of infections now. All they're trying to do is stop the rate of infection so people won't die.
The governor is threatening legal action. It will be interesting to see how this works out.
