- Description:
- Various tribal leaders have expressed their disapproval of the actions taken by militant Indian groups involved in the Trail of Broken Treaties movement in Washington, D.C. They emphasize the importance of consulting with elected tribal leaders and working through proper channels to address issues facing Indian communities. They do not support the occupation of the Bureau of Indian Affairs building and believe that the actions of these groups do not represent the interests of all Indian people. They urge for a return to dialogue and proper negotiation in addressing the needs of Indian communities.
