— Due to federal leasing of land, Native Americans can often not obtain a bank loan to build property or businesses on their home, which has devastated their ability to pursue the American dream
— Much like the misaligned federal VA hospitals that were struggling before Trump went and fixed them during his 45th presidency, Indian Health Service hospitals are even worse with some of the lowest patient outcomes and physician vacancy rates in the world
— Unfortunately, Native Americans currently have the lowest life expectancy of any race in America, but we never hear about it because they are largely a rural population
— There are 574 federally recognized tribes and each have different customs, laws, DNA, demographic footprints, and cultural identities
— And yet, as a large coalition, they have fiercely maintained their treaty obligations to the US government. Despite being abused and mistreated by an overreaching (but ineffective) federal government
— For their loyalty to the US, we have not always honored our treaty rights to them
— It’s time to help Native Americans build a better future for their tribes. One with less inflation, more jobs, better infrastructure, and more safety for their communities
— One that honors our word, our treaties, and builds these communities to the greatness our First Americans deserve
— They serve us, they fight for us and they saved the world’s ass during WW2. We owe it to Native Peoples
