Support Justice For The Winnemem Wintu Tribe
- Target: Senator Barbara Boxer; Senator Dianne Feinstein; California Congressional Delegation
- Sponsored by: Winnemem Wintu Tribe
We, the undersigned, support the Winnemem Wintu struggle for justice. The California Legislature passed AJR 39, a joint resolution memorializing Congress to restore recognition to the Winnemem Wintu Tribe. The next step to correct an historic wrong now goes to the Federal level. We ask that you, as Senators representing California, sponsor and support a bill for the restoration of the Winnemem Wintu tribe. Change the message relayed in 1852 which refused to honor the treaty this tribe signed, in peace and friendship, by restoring the basic human rights they have been fighting for over the past 156 years.
As a tribe long known to the government of the State and in Washington DC, it is time that they receive the help promised in their treaty and as a result of the CVP Indian Land Acquisition Act of 1941
We thank you for your attention to this important Human Rights issue, and look forward to supporting the bill you send forward on behalf of the Winnemem Wintu Tribe.
