DaveTV1 Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 I think that all Indian Nations should have a Representative for every major tribe with a population of over 100,000. Since they are basically treated as territories, but with a few more rights they should have a representative who does not have voting rights with their representation just as other territories. I actually wouldn't have a problem with both having voting rights in the House. While territories do elect their representatives, I think the Indian Nations should be able to appoint theirs just as Governors used to appoint Senators.

They should have done this from the time the treaty was signed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
