Comments
While this was a wonderful speech, I was disappointed that it did not address the challenges of the majority of Indians who live off the reservation in urban,suburban and rural areas. Many are becoming the victims of a new Era of Off-Reservation Termination, not the engaged business era of economic development that was presented. Zero funding for off-reservation housing,dental care, day care,higher education facilities,elder care,legal aid,homelessness,suicide prevention,gang prevention,etc. is not enough. I do not think the Constitution meant to uphold government and ignore the needs of most of the people.
