From Montana another land grab by Republican Sen. Keith Regier in this year’s legislative session:
“The draft resolution argues that reservations have “failed to positively enhance the lives and well-being” of Native Americans, led to substance abuse, domestic violence, welfare dependence, poverty and substandard education. It also argues tribal members who don’t own land have the highest poverty rate and lowest life expectancy of any ethnic group in America.
“It also argues reservations are “not in the best interests of either the Indians inside our borders or for our common Montana Citizens.”
“Morigeau said that if legislators want to consider any alternative, it should be “giving the land back that was taken in the first place, not robbing the last bit of land and resources that we have.”
