New @3Streamsblog out with a brief look at our new paper w/ @JournalREP, "Battling the Hydra," which examines the impact of North Dakota's voter ID law on Native Americans in the state. cc: @realMABarreto @UNMSocialPolicy

[UNM Center for Social Policy @UNMSocialPolicy]

In North Dakota, Native Americans are a large enough minority group to impact elections. They are also more likely to be impacted by restrictive voter ID requirements.

It showed Native workers face an 11.1% unemployment rate—nearly 3x the national rate.

We wrote about the data and Native workers being left out of the recovery: https://t.co/5oCqsm5cxt
