Worth noting this is also happening at the same time as the Bundy assholes are putting out briefs on how to essentially bluster your way into stealing indigenous water, aimed squarely at Klamath-Siskiyou indigenous water rights holders.

This is just one more reason to hate TPTB in Texas. (Not indigenous, but in between my academic background and having friends who’ve worked oilfields I know damn well they break/leak, and while ICWA maybe isn’t perfect it’s a huge improvement over residential schools/60s Scoop/various other forms of racism when it comes to indigenous kiddos at least getting to stay in their tribe/Nation/culture).
