Klamath Tribes Chairman Don Gentry and a Klamath Tribes delegation voiced support for the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument expansion — among other topics — during their first meeting with U.S. Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke in Medford Sunday.

During an hour-long meeting at Medford’s Bureau of Land Management office, Gentry also invited Zinke to visit the Tribes homeland in the Klamath Basin, and requested action on the termination of Upper Klamath Basin Comprehensive Agreement.
