Indigenous, Native American Tribes' Are Pushing For Voting Rights

The video discusses the history and current state of voting rights for Native Americans in the U.S. Native people were not citizens until 1924 and faced voting barriers until 1962. Despite recent gains, challenges persist, such as laws in Montana that hinder voting access. Same day registration and ballot collection are crucial for Native communities. Indigenous voters have shown significant influence in recent elections, and ongoing efforts aim to protect and expand voting rights through legislation like the John R. Lewis Act.
