What a Harris presidency would mean for Native Americans
Vice President Kamala Harris will wrap up the Democratic National Convention, a climax to the four-day political spectacle to launch the vice president into the home stretch toward the November 2024 election.
A presidential candidate for barely a month, Harris makes her best case to lead the nation for the next four years. If voters choose Harris, what could her administration mean for Native Americans?
Join Native America Calling to examine her record on the Indian Child Welfare Act, sovereignty, consultation, and honoring treaties. Guests will draw from her work as a U.S. senator, California attorney general, and vice president when it comes to issues important to Native Americans.
