Native American tribal matters vs civil rights? (federal government, federal, news)

[Slater]

I don't know. I tend to think that the federal government should leave tribes to handle their own internal matters:

Well, it's either their land, or it isn't.

These were fraudulently included to begin with; they never were entitled to the protection of the tribe and the benefits of tribal membership.

I'd feel differently if the reverse were happening - if people who wanted to leave weren't allowed to.

But these are benefits for their members/citizens are entitled to. Same as the US realizing someone received citizenship fraudulently, and packing them back to their country of true citizenship.
