Immigration Concerns

Tribal leaders address Navajo detention reports

Tribal leaders are raising concerns following reports that Navajo people were detained during recent immigration sweeps. According to the Oregon Capital Chronicle, these actions have prompted calls for a review of how Native Americans are treated in such operations. Tribal officials emphasize that these individuals should not be subject to immigration enforcement due to their citizenship in sovereign nations. The Navajo Nation is investigating the matter and seeking clarification on their members' rights in this context.
