Our peoples’ voices have been silenced for far too long. Biden and Harris have changed that.
In fact, the work others, who have been working to rescind medals given for the massacre at Wounded Knee— something we have been working on for many years, met Harris and her husband, Deb Haaland and other lawmakers in Washington DC and no other people in government have done more to FINALLY tell the truth in history about it being a massacre.
Please think of our youth. >>>
Indigenous voices must be heard. It is long overdue.
Here is something important from Heather Dawn Thompson:
Who Is President MATTERS!!!!
A short list of some of the decisions under this President that would NOT have happened under Trump.
When you vote for a President you vote for a whole team.
The Biden Harris Administration had over 80+ Native presidential appointees. Most administrations have 2 or 3. This is just a handful of things that would NEVER happen otherwise. >>>
IT MATTERS. And it affects our lives and our children’s lives.
Get off your unze (tushy).
Stop complaining. Go freaking vote!!**YOU ARE GETTING INDIGENOUS FOODS. $100million that we redirected to tribes (that was originally going to states) to buy indigenous foods. All those herring eggs, salmon, buffalo, wild rice, timpsila, being purchased from your family and distributed by your tribe? That only happened because of Biden Harris. >>>
**The White House issued a memo requiring all federal agencies to incorporate INDIGENOUS KNOWLEDGE with western science into their work. Like prescribed burning for forest management, and knowledge of pants and animals into land management. This would NEVER happen under a different Administration**TRIBAL CORPORATIONS. Treasury finally recognizing Tribal corporations. So that Tribes can build their economies. That was a battle! That only happened because of Biden Harris. >>>
**JOBS. $20billion set aside for Tribal renewable energy projects at Dept of Energy. That means jobs and economic development on reservations. That only happened because of Biden Harris.
**INDIGENOUS ANIMALS MEAT PROCESSING. USDA investing in meat processing of indigenous animals (reindeer, lamprey, buffalo…) for the first time in history. That only happened because of Biden Harris. >>>
**For tribal ranchers. TRIBAL TRUST LANDS DETERMINED ELIGIBLE: The U.S. Forest Service clarified that tribal trust lands are not to be classified as “federal” lands and are eligible to serve as “base property” to qualify for Forest and National Grasslands grazing permits. This change finally gives Tribal producers the same fair chance as all producers at permits. >>>
**TRIBAL GOVERNMENT CONSENT REQUIRED: Rural Development clarified that the permits and approvals for large infrastructure projects - broadband and electric - that are required before
financing includes tribal government approvals when building on tribal lands through a tribal resolution of consent. >>>
