Following oral argument in Hagen v. Utah, counselor for the respondent Jan Graham, Senator Robert Bennett (R-UT), and Representative Karen Shepherd (D-UT) spoke with reporters. The case concerned whether Utah or the regional Indian tribe had primary authority over reservation land, as well as the right to determine the use of that land.
