Pete has a history of voting against Native American issues and interests in his time in office including infrastructure and business interests. If you read this and feel compelled to do so, write or call Hoekstra, and ask him why he treats Native Americans like a subclass of society, and not part of the fabric of our country.

Can't wait for him to come and say what a great bill it is and how he supported it.
do the native americans pay taxes? I'm thinking they don't but I could be wrong. If they don't , I vote they get zero subsidies. My money is already going for enough handouts.
Yes they are American citizens and Yes they pay taxes. Therefore they have the right just like you and I to government assistance. I'm sure your picture of Native Americans is limited to casinos. But the majority of Indian tribes live in poverty. I'm not going to give you a lesson in this space.
