Today, I’m pleased to announce that as president, I will establish a Federal office for Tribal Equity and Liberation that will assist me with confronting and dismantling challenges specific to our Indigenous siblings - from access to clean water, clean air, and a healthy environment, to ending the MMIW epidemic, to ensuring that the treaties are upheld and respected in ways that are perpetually evaluated and monitored to increase justice and maximum efficacy. This office will also inform my administration on the best and most expeditious ways to codify and enforce FPIC, as well as the Land Back Commission I committed to forming as part of my Policy Pillars for Truth, Justice, and Love. #IndigenousPeoplesDay #TruthJusticeLove
It's so weird how they're like "China is bad, I'm scared they're investing in our hemisphere," but also "unions are bad, let the auto workers do a free market and send jobs to China" and also "immigrants are coming from south/central America fleeing poverty" but also "I'm mad China is investing there" and also "let's keep sanctioning Venezuela."
