The Klamath tribe lost over 1,800,000 acres of land, and almost 2,000 Native Americans lost their tribal affliction. 62 tribes were terminated in Oregon, many were the Klamath tribes. The government saw the Klamath tribes land as a resource of lumber and the economy thrived on that. In 1954 the Senate passed a public law terminating the Klamath tribe.

One reason the Bureau of Indian Affairs chose the Menominee was that the tribe had successful forestry and lumbering operations that the BIA believed could support the tribe economically. Congress passed an act in 1954 that officially called for the termination of the Menominee as a federally recognized Indian tribe. The termination did not happen immediately. The act that was passed in 1954 set a process in motion that would lead to termination. By the year 1958, the tribe would be terminated but the tribe had trouble determining what to do with its tribal assets and federally protected reservation lands so they were given a year extension. Termination became such a huge task for the tribe that they asked for an additional two years on the extension. By 1961, all tribal property was transferred to a corporation called Menominee Enterprises, Inc. (MEI) so the reservation became a new Wisconsin county, Menominee County.

Fun facts:

The Tribe's members enjoy pristine lakes, rivers, and streams, over 219,000 acres of the richest forests in the Nation, and an abundance of plant and animal life.

It is the largest Indian reservation east of the Mississippi River.

The Flathead were a North American Indian Tribe located in what is now Western Montana. In 1953 the US government passed the Termination Act. The act ended the tribe's sovereign status and relationship with the federal government as a political entity. Early 21st-century population estimates indicated more than 4,000 Flathead descendants left.
