READ NCAI President Mark Macarro's State of Indian Nations Address

Washington is the chairman of the Red Brown Sky Chard tribe (NCAI) based in Temecle, California, and the chairman of the Colombia Special Ward, a Warner Theater in the Colombia Special Zone, to the Indian ethnic groups. I made the first appeal.

The purpose of this venue, which has a venue every year, is to assume information about the reddish brown issues that are important for the state and the vision of the next year.

On the first day of the week, Macaro announced the third instructions for NCAI work to focus on 2024.

• NCAI holds a state summit on social security and justice to reveal the lack of tribal police in the tribal area. Apart from this, this summit is dedicated to the opioid-backwordness overwhelming in the red skin land.
• In the NCAI framework, we will form an ambitious group to focus on the unity of tribal members and promote education and improvement. This is the case in NCAI's daily tournament last fall, which has been succeeded in a resolution to reduce the role of a generally recognized tribal member in NCAI.
• NCAI organizes the voice of the red shirt and has organized a round power "the voice of an indigenous person" to ensure the voting rights of the tribal Yankee.

At the end of the Macaro Concert, Mary Peltor (selected Alaska), the first member of the Federal Congress, gave a speech.

The American Congress of the Americas has expanded the appeal of President Macaro:

At the beginning

Meyham, Polov Amkusungai. Míiyuyam, nonéshkinum, no''wilam, 'amáayaum, press. Mark Muqára yaqáa, Noon Kíktumi muqára pí 'qéengish; pí' noon pecháangawish pum'tó∫ngakati.

Good morning, everyone. I am invited to Mark Macaro, from the Mukar and squirrels Earth, and is the representative of the California Red Hand landing tribe.

It's a great honor for me to be with my wife, Holly Cook Macaro, our son, Hudson and Rug, and her daughter Rebecca and David. Holly and Redshe are here.

And thank the Red Landing tribe, that is, my colleagues. With the conclusions and the work of good intentions, you all sincerely support my appeal for freezing by NCAI ∫ Eunup Rovik Pechangayam.

Welcome to the appeal of "Indian State 2024".

For me, it is very honorable to work as a country of the state parliament with American red hands and as a country of people with red hands. I want to achieve this job with a humble feeling and the feeling of trying to be true in the relationship with our people.

He expressed his gratitude to the indigenous people of the land, Jizoto Chank / Anastia, and his neighbors, Piskata Eye.

Thanks to the developers for gathering us now. The wisdom and meaning of the elder are considered to be the soil of our community. And the loud voice of the young people in the re d-haired country led to the hope we entrusted to everyone. We would like to thank many veterans in the indigenous people for the service.

It's a great honor for me that my federal colleagues are here. The officials, politicians, the appointment of the judiciary, and their staff are accepting the conclusions that affect the people every day.

Let's get a factor in bringing out rich diversity and power from prosperous tribal nations at this venue.

In fact, in the land of Red Skin, the moment of hope is now coming.

From the posts selected in the election to the space, all the consulates have been converged by providing the consulate. [Quoting Lily Gradston's words).

The work takes time, but the Indian government is tight and growing.

According to the chairman of NCAI, for example, I do it, for about 30 years of work as a tribal chairman, what we focus on our cultural soil, from my founder, Sony. Come, THEHESIA.

Like many natives of the same generation, Sony has been in a difficult life, but it stands out in respect and optimism for people.

My founder was a orthodontic facility staff at the youth preparatory school in Reno, California. At the age of 14, he was involved in decisio n-making with young people. Most of the population of this Katsuka was black and brown.

In the past, I was a child who knew everything, and remembered that I was near the perpetrators every day, believing that everyone was there, but asked how to endure it. There is.

He answered: Don't judge them because of their pathological conclusions or the bottom of life. ""

I accepted his wisdom close to my heart, and since then I have begun to carry his text without leaving my skin.

My founder died in 1988, pursuing the jailbreak, fulfilling the state of the nation.

In my hometown, I love the birds singing and chanting in Nukuba.

Like many of you, the songs we sing at public meetings and funerals teach us to understand our place in the world. Thanks to our songs, I learned the word "bison" in my language.

But the bison in Southern California have not been there for thousands of years.

We had a contracted archaeologist who denied the possibility that bison roamed Southern California. He called the term a memory culture.

But isn't it interesting that whenever construction begins in our area and digging is required to a depth of 20 feet or more, bison bones are found?

What seems more believable? The fact that my people invented a word for an animal that did not live among us, and that my people appeared in this area during the ice age and perhaps even 2. 5 million years ago.

Our stories and traditions have a lot to say to all the inhabitants of this land. Our songs teach us that there was a time when the moon was not yet in the sky on Earth. Indeed, we have been here a very long time.

And therein lies the unwavering spirit that supports the strength of our community today. We are the first Americans, and our people are the first government.

Today, I look to Indian lands, but also to all my fellow citizens who increasingly look to us for wisdom, cooperation, and solutions to our common problems.

This beautiful theater where we gathered first opened 100 years ago, in 1924, the year that the Indians of this country gained American citizenship and the right to vote.

But now, this theater doesn't look exactly like it did in 1924, on Indian lands.

Our community continues to recover and strengthen our traditions, culture, and values. We have stood the test of time. Long after this building, we will be gone from here.

Even though the Snyder Act was passed 100 years ago, barriers in the path to voting still exist and continue to arise. That is why the bipartisan Native American Voting Rights Act, formulated by our faction, Native Americans, is not just a bill to be passed in Congress. It is a tool to expand our political capacity and give Native voice to Native people.

In 2024, the power of a Native American vote could determine the outcome of an election and change the course of history not just for Native Americans, but for all U. S. citizens, and potentially for multiple generations.

2024 will be a turning point, but in my first stint as NCAI president, it is important that I do not limit it to just this year.

Imagine what kind of heritage you want to leave in the future, 10 years, 20 years, and 100 years ahead.

I believe that heritage can only be obtained by continuing the traditions built at the time of the establishment of NCAI 80 years ago, that is, the unity, goals and behavior.

People who established NCAI here in the capital of the United States have their own culture, and we are united for common purposes, and to protect and strengthen the tribal sovereignty. I knew that one voice and collective action were needed.

This wisdom is connected beyond generations.

The power of our collective voice has never been revealed last year, when the Indian land corresponded to the Blackin case.

486 tribal nations and 59 tribal organizations have supported the constitutionality of the Indian Child Welfare Law.

People listened. The court also listened. And the United States also listened.

The tribal nations together together to protect our children. It is the unity of such a collective behavior that moves us forward.

Our task is to develop this heritage.

Part of this heritage is to keep talking about the story, especially about painful stories. Study it and grow more strongly without being caught by past wounds.

We are drawing out the service awareness of the people from the most painful moment in history. The ancestors of the ancestors are responsible for maintaining the tribal identity. "

Minister of Interior Deb Harlan d-Please wait, say again. Minister of Interior Deb Harland, I don't want to think that this moment is natural.

Herland is buying and caring a story about the Federal Boarding School, which holds conversations from this era.

We are grateful for all of her winning and have to continue her work.

We continue to talk about such stories, create a safe place for people to share the story, add a story to our historical mosaics, and avoid silence in this era and other trauma. You have to be able to do it.

Like the archeologists who did not believe that Bison had walked on my ancestor land, we future historians and archeologists did not do this in our era. Must be confirmed. We have to keep talking about our story.

For example, for both Red Skins, and for the three departments of the federal government, one of the important tasks that stands in front of us is to take the sovereign, agreements, and compliance. It is to maximize the possibilities of the relationship.

We are facing difficult reality. The recent legal view has weakened our sovereignty and focuses on the guidance principles of the agreement. We believe that some problems have been solved. But at one point, there is an attempt to reduce our tribal sovereignty. For example, why is it possible to turn our world upside down immediately?

The decision of Castr o-Werta occupation is an example. It indicates how easy the basic legal basis of the relationship between the United States and the tribe, which has been established for the second century, can be corrected.

Such conclusions change the situation and rewrite to justify the results that impair our sovereignty.

It is not enough to emphasize how much the arbitrator has affected the lives of millions of indigenous people.

In the Castr o-Werta case, a dee p-rooted misunderstanding of the tribal sovereign was highlighted. On the other hand, in the Blacken incident, not only our situation and rights were recognized, but also respect for the time being.

This is no longer a straight fight. We fight, win, and proceed to what we need to come. Earlier, they will continue to attack us.

Fifty years ago, the Supreme Court issued a Borded occupation. This was a huge victory and important judgment that acknowledged hunting and fishing rights based on the Treaty of Brothers in the northwest of the Pacific Ocean.

The intense contrast between the two trials highlights the urgent need of the legal system that recognizes and respects the foundation of the tribal sovereignty. As my old friend Billy Frank, Niscelli tribe, we must save the tribe.

To do so, the relationship between the Federal Indian Law and the government must be a compulsory subject for universal law education, and it is compulsory in the Jeonju bar exam.

We are grateful that President Biden has nominated the historical number of native Yankee as a federal government's public office, and thank the Senator who led the vote to approve these nominations.

In the parliament, you can see our community well and see many native Yankees, a true champion who will fight together for our future. We support and support your voting in the upper and lower hospitals, Sharis Davids, Whut Call, Mary Peltra, Josh Bretin, Mark Wayne Marine, and both in the upper and lower hospitals.

Congress must fulfill the United States's promises-has paid and has not yet been fulfilled. It is a promise claimed to be signed by a nation.

We need to take immediate actions in important fields such as medical, housing, our land and waters.

The happiness and future of the tribes must not be driven by political programs in the rear view. Our needs and rights must be given priority over biased policies.

From this point of view, the parliament should be obliged to provide Indians' funding to medical care and permanently become permanent. This is the most important policy to prevent the death of indigenous people due to political deadlocks and government closure.

We also call on the lon g-term review of the "Housing and Sel f-determination of American indigenous houses and sel f-determination", modernizing funding, and solving the lack of housing security that indigenous people are mainly suffering. This is a bipartisan initiative led by Brian Shaseta and Lisa Murkovsky of the Senate Indian Committee.

Congress should pass a bill about agriculture that respects the sovereignty of the tribe. It must contribute to comprehensive sel f-determination, acknowledge traditional conservation methods, and increase the opportunity for tribes to manage their food systems.

It is necessary to recognize our indispensable sovereignty, such as the authority to guarantee the compliance with the law in our land and the liberation from double taxation that stops our economic growth.

The needs of Indian land are incorrect.

Indian land needs are urgent and satisfied, not the subject of debate.

For many years, tribal nations have created more, but at the same time, only less. This is clear from the records that the government itself did not fulfill its promise.

There is no more anymore. Not only is it expected to have enough funds that match the population, but it is also a parliamentary duty.

Regarding the government, I would like to pay attention to the major changes that the government brought to the Indian land.

At the same time, the president has worked as the highest native American authorities, from the White House to many government agencies. We are looking at you.

Such a display contributes to deepening our needs.

A great deal of effort was made to expand the dialogue and talks between the government. We are observing the relocation of property rights and improving the process of NAGPRA and environmental standards.

The government is still working with us to restore control of ancient territories. We protected Chaco Canyon and signed a 200 agreements on joint management and joint cultivation, so we did it.

Just two months ago, the first presidential decree of the Red Skin State was signed since the Clinton administration, promised to increase access to local government funding, but its absolute impact. I don't know yet.

President Biden is the most important thing to fight with the spread of Fentanyl and opioids, as well as the commitment to the Red Country's justice and the improvement of social safety nets. The center of this initiative is the need to integrate the jurisdiction of the tribal criminal justice and increase the law execution resources. We must effectively confront this trendy and destructive impact, overcome it, and save lives.

And it will not be possible to consider Red Country's justice without emphasizing the unfairness of Leonard Peltier, who has been sentenced to 49 years in prison. He is now calling for his release, including the prosecutor who put him in prison. This must be discussed frankly and immediately correct.

In order to continue to play a leading role in protecting the earth over many generations, the transition to clean energy such as offshore wind power and lithium mine development will be the right of our sovereignty and consensus. It is most important not to respect. The formal consultation with the tribal civilization is a source that guarantees that these initiatives are fully considering our territory and waterway.

This power has established the most powerful fact of respecting sovereignty and cooperating based on the only voice of the re d-skinned country. This work is still ongoing, and it is urgently necessary to have a continuous cooperation of both sides.

That's why it's time to work in Red Skins. And what I am trying to clarify is that NCAI's chairman has a commitment to build its heritage.

The way we should go depends on our business choice. And we must decide whether to confront the difficulties, or whether to unite with the collective ambition and strength that has characterized us for generations.

NCAI's goal by r e-enhancing the tribal jurisdiction of the Women's Violence Prevention Law, working on the problem of indigenous indigenous people, and dismantling harmful norms standing up for youth. Achieved.

In the short term, this continuous activity, which destroys unauthorized sense, has led to the foundation for our empowerment in the long term.

And now, as we close the curtain on 80 years of history, I urge NCAI to elevate our voice to new heights.

I want to announce three important actions:

• The Indian lands are 18. 5 million acres and the total police force is 3, 000. So, when I say this, in many places on Turtle Island, there are only one or two officers patrolling 1-2 million acres of reservations.

By comparison, the U. S. Capitol is 750 acres and has 2, 000 police officers.

My good friend, Chairman Darrell Say of the Red Lake Chippewa Tribe in northern Minnesota, nearly lost his speech when he spoke about how his tribe's communities are being devastated by the opioid epidemic. Despite arresting drug dealers multiple times, tribes face difficulties due to limited detention authority. The same criminals return to communities in just days, sometimes hours, because federal authorities do not prosecute them. We urgently need jurisdiction to prosecute such criminals and ensure tribal protection.

The federal standard for officers is 2, 4 officers per 1000 population. Tribes have 0, 6 officers per 1000 SIUs. They were forced to sue the United States based on the Clausula on bad people from the 1868 Fort Laram Treaty with the Oceti Sakowin tribe, according to which the United States has a responsibility to protect tribal citizens.

That is why I am taking up the NCAI for the first time to conduct a national justice and security summit where we can have an in-depth discussion of tribal nation jurisdiction and law enforcement needs, and police brutality in urban tribal communities.

The injustice of over-policing and over-incarceration must be eliminated and remedied. An end to the chronic underfunding and inadequate provision of law enforcement on tribal lands is necessary.

And the conversation will continue about the fentanyl and opioid crisis. Tribal leaders, as well as federal leaders, states, districts, and communities impacted by this epidemic, can join our conversation.

Second, I will announce that in the NCAI, focus on the sincerity of the tribal members and create a taskforce that promotes education and welfare. Everyone knows about the vote of the revision plan at the previous meeting. I want to overcome this problem with respect. This is necessary to unite our voices and build unity and strength.

And to the Alaska family: We acknowledge our unity as an indigenous people. Opened dialogue is about the role of Alaska indigenous companies, the impact of climate change and the rise of seawater temperature on the survival of coastal community and salmon, the policy related to the mixed commercial fishery and salmon, and cros s-border mining without environmental easing. I need it.

Third, our collective and continuous politics is important. Our voices have the power to determine our future. I plan to hold an "indigenous voice" round table conference to strengthen the Indian voice and secure their voting rights.

When we actively participate, speak, and defend each other, our collective power resonates. Through these actions, NCAI can continue to defend the rights and needs of indigenous people.

Conclusion: Shared vision for the future

In other words, NCAI must not forget his mission. We are here to protect the rights in the treaty, our language and culture, and improve the quality of the tribal community.

We are the deliberations, Congress, and listen to the opinions of delegates throughout the Indian Country, and then use a resolution to get consensus.

There are various events in the world, and there are many strong opinions on it. I myself understand the difficulties of the community facing immigration and land loss, and blame genocide and terrorism. On this stage, as a chairman of NCAI, I decided to work hard to show the united front of all issues in the consultation process.

Last but not least, my activity as a NCAI chairman is led by the vision of our heritage we will remain in the future.

I want this heritage to reflect the resilience of our spirit. The resilience of our culture. The strength that has defined our ethnic groups for thousands of years.

We are full of strength and energy. And our heritage will continue to be strong over the next few decades. For all justice. May the Creator protect all of us. thank you
