NOT INVITED TO OBAMA'S TRIBAL CONFERENCE. Nationwide Protest November 4.
Stop Amendments to 1934 IRA!
Stop the broken Carcieri fixes!
Immediately tell your Congressman and the President "NO" on HR 3742, HR 3697 and S 1703.
Demand a congressional investigation of the BIA cover-up.
Echo-hawk promised public hearings for both Native American and the US public to solve the Carcieri decision. The leaders at this conference don't represent us.
These bills don't protect Native Americans or the Tax Payers of US, they absolve the Secretary of the Interior and the Bureau of Indian affairs from 200 years of corruption and failure to protect and administer the congress’s treaties made with the Native American’s.
· Were you dis-enrolled?
· Was your tribal identity stolen by an imposter tribe?
· Have you been excluded from the entitlements you've been seeing your leaders get?
· Was your tribe rejected for recognition without explanation...even with thousands of pages documenting your ancestry?
