The San Manuel Band of Mission Indians is donating $600,000 over two years to help the Native American Rights Fund support and protect tribal sovereignty.
The tribe’s donation will go to the Tribal Supreme Court Project, a joint initiative of NARF and the National Congress of American Indians. As part of the effort, tribes and their advocates work closely together to ensure tribal interests are represented in cases that go before the U.S. Supreme Court.
“We express gratitude to the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians for their ongoing support of the Tribal Supreme Court Project,” NARF Executive Director John Echohawk said in a news release on Monday. “Protecting tribal sovereignty is an all-hands-on-deck effort to ensure that Native American people can continue to live according to our cultures and traditions as we have for generations
