My sister is 48 years old and lives with a disability and advanced diabetes. Doctors say she may not be able to work because of her leg. She is very scared, and it breaks my heart. I cry often and struggle with fear, uncertainty, and feeling helpless. I am holding onto hope and prayer, but this has been very hard, and I need support and understanding.

As long as those lakes are on native lands they belong to the tribes they belong to not non tribal members

Flanagan just might be a real one, a real populist and anti-establishment politician, as she never took dark money, she relied on her message and the people, hopefully she can win the election, as Minnesota is a blue state, but will the establishment Dems try to undermine her, or corrupt her, we'll have to see. It's always good to see more Native representation, and I think we can count on her to to help Native America and establish more rights and sovereignty.
