ROSS, Circuit Judge.
This suit for declaratory and injunctive relief was brought by the Omaha, Santee Sioux and Winnebago Indian tribes and certain tribe members who purported to represent a class of Indians similarly situated (Indians). Defendants are the Nebraska State Tax Commissioner and the Nebraska Department of Revenue (Nebraska), who seek to collect Nebraska taxes on income earned on the tribes’ reservations by the Indians, who live on the reservations within the state of Nebraska. The lower court granted summary judgment for Nebraska and the Indians have appealed. We affirm.
