63 of our 306 are facing eviction from their low-income HUD homes on Nooksack land. We're still fighting for our rights as Nooksack citizens. The identity politics have not ended. #Nooksack306 https://t.co/beQNTUZZak
I just yet another official communication about the dire situation of the elders facing eviction by the Nooksack Tribe. I urge the Nooksack Tribe to stop the forced eviction scheduled today of 3 families, and find a more humane solution. I also urge the Federal Government and Washington State to prevent this eviction and, if it still takes place, to ensure immediate access to emergency housing.
Our Elders are facing UN-condemned evictions and property takings on Thanksgiving Friday. @GovInslee @SenatorCantwell and @SecDebHaaland "look away to protect their careers." They can still do something to prevent this injustice. PLEASE SHARE THIS POST.

@NDNlawyer appeared in a 4-minute, 30-second @fox13seattle news story last night, where he criticized Democrats like @SecDebHaaland and @GovInslee for ignoring Indigenous human rights abuse: "they simply look away to protect their careers." https://t.co/ePwvpBRdsa
"The politicians in Olympia and Washington...are afraid if they do something at Nooksack to prevent human rights abuses, they will somehow be accused...of affronting tribal sovereignty, so they simply look away to protect their careers,' said @NDNlawyer."

Indian Country 100yrs after the Indian Citizenship Act:
Evicting wrongly disenrolled families from their homes the day after Native American Heritage Day
With evictions now looming — multiple Nooksack families are searching for a miracle: a change of heart. Today’s story on @fox13seattle explores the plight of disenrollment and how both disenrollees and tribal gov’t react to the real world impacts. https://t.co/3gPRDaWSKZ
We lift our hands to @AsstSecNewland for denouncing these unlawful evictions. We ask for @SecDebHaaland to join him. We ask for everyone's prayers as our Elders face evictions by Nooksack cops next Friday--national Native American Heritage Day. We Belong.

"@POTUS@JoeBiden and @GovInslee...should use whatever power and influence they have to keep these families in their homes and not make the homeownership program just another broken government promise made to America’s Indigenous people." #BrokenPromises
