The Ute Tribe asks for Speaker Paul Ryan to stop assaults on Indian Tribal lands. The Ute PAC is not authorized by any candidate or candidate’s committee.
@arrol_p Wow. And if you don’t know the history, Aspen was founded as Ute City in 1879, the same year the Utes were expelled from their ancestral lands to Utah. The next year, 1880, Ute City’s name was changed to Aspen😦 https://t.co/CJKh6i7ADJ
We as Indian people, need to remember. That we may have our disagreements in here, but when we walk out those doors we are one nation. We are there for each other. Thank you, Tog’oyak
We can feel good that we talked like tribal people. We spoke from the heart...if I’m successful I will do the things that I’m able to do to benefit Indian Country...you the leadership needs to be in the front lines.
Q-Why should Tribes join NCAI?
A-This organization needs willing partners. The reason membership is down is the leaders weren’t feeling heard...We better recognize that we are not the leadership but we listen to the leadership...We need to make NCAI accessible. -Shaun Chapoose
We are in a new era. There are a lot of Native lawyers. We need to put our Native lawyers forward and advocate for them...We need to put their names forward (to become judges.) To push this forward - Shaun Chapoos

"Interior, with its newly installed former oil and gas lobbyist as secretary, stacked the 15-member Bears Ears Advisory Committee with those who fought President Obama’s original designation of the monument." #StandWithBearsEars#HonorTribes

Now that Rep. Bishop is no longer able to bully as Chair of the House Natural Resource Committee he has resorted to a temper tantrum.

"By rejecting these attacks and preventing their inclusion in S. 47, Congress is telling SITLA, Bishop, Curtis and Hatch that is time for all Utahns to work with the Ute Indian Tribe in partnership for a better future.” #NativeTwitter https://t.co/FFaJi3xNcW
“For more than 100 years, bad actors in Utah and the Federal government have tried to take the lands and waters that we reserved in treaties and agreements with the United States. These attacks must end.” #NativeTwitter https://t.co/FFaJi3xNcW
Two years ago today, President @BarackObama established the original, 1.35 million-acre Bears Ears National Monument. We commemorate this date as a celebration of ancestral landscapes, tribal sovereignty, & Native self-determination. #StandWithBearsEars#TwoYearAnniversary
On this date in 2016, Bears Ears and Gold Butte National Monuments were designated to protect areas of cultural, historic, and scientific importance in Utah and Nevada. RT to celebrate our #MonumentsForAll! #StandWithBearsEars#GoldButte
Why did phytosaurs – crocodile-like creatures that lived during the Triassic period – go extinct, but then dinosaurs survived & then thrived? Fossils found in Bears Ears National Monument could help solve this mystery: https://t.co/PWflUQOwxR #MonumentsForAll#StandWithBearsEars
