They already get tax free alcohol. :)

Casinos and all that they stand for.

I copied this answer off the net FYI, it is not my information personally. My grandmother was Mohawk. You pay the same income taxes as everyone else to the feds at least. There are some special rules for reservations & state/sales taxes, but your federal income taxes are the same. Source(s): My grandmother. Mohawk Indian & paid regular income taxes all her life. 5 months ago

What the hell is a native American? Sounds like a Jesus-Nature-Man or something. My great grandmother lived on an Indian reservation. It wasn't a Native reservation or an American Reservation. Why don't you white people do just ONE thin for us perfect-in-nature-indigenous-people? Why not ask? No one asked US if we preferred "Native American". First, it's cloying. Second, we prefer not to be called "Americans". Couldn't you ask? You have teams called the Blood-Thirsty-Indian Savages then claim, "Oh, but we are HONORING Native Americans with our Hollywood music, Hollywood tomahawk dance routine." But you didn't even ask. Tax deductions? No. We don't need them. We can pay our taxes. We wouldn't mind not being treated like teddy bears once in a while. Visit the Cherokee Nation's capitol in Tahlequah, Oklahoma and talk with the Cherokee. They HATE "Native American" and are proud that the local college football team is called "The Redmen". We're humans. Just like you.

Native Americans are subject to the same income tax laws as other U.S. citizens unless there is an exemption explicitly created by treaty or statute. Squire v. Capoeman, 351 U.S. 1, 6 (1956); Estate of Poletti v. Commissioner, 99 T.C. 554, 557-58 (1992), aff’d, 34 F.3d 742 (9th Cir. 1994); Doxtator v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2005-113. Any exemption must be based on clear and unambiguous treaty or statutory language. Squire, 351 U.S. at 6; Ramsey v. United States, 302 F.3d 1074 (9th Cir. 2002); Cook v. United States, 86 F.3d 1095 (Fed. Cir. 1996); Estate of Peterson v. Commissioner, 90 T.C. 249, 250 (1988). Under the Internal Revenue Code, all individuals, including Native Americans, are subject to federal income tax. Section 1 imposes a tax on all taxable income. Section 61 provides that gross income includes all income from whatever source derived. Adjustments to income, deductions, and credits must be claimed in accordance with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and accompanying Treasury regulations. Although there are certain exemptions and other provisions throughout the Internal Revenue Code that apply to Native Americans, none of these exempt individual Native American taxpayers from federal tax. Moreover, under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act, any distribution of casino gaming proceeds to individual tribe members is also subject to federal income tax. Additionally, while there are numerous valid treaties between various Federally Recognized Indian Tribal Governments and the United States government, some of which may contain language providing for narrowly defined tax exemptions, these treaties have limited application to specific tribes. Any exemptions from federal tax are expressly stated in the language of the treaty. Taxpayers who are affected by such treaty language must be a member of a particular tribe having a treaty and must cite that specific treaty in claiming any exemption. There is no general treaty that is applicable to all Native Americans.
