Indigenous, Native American Tribes' Are Pushing For Voting Rights

The Native American Rights fund says across the board there are many barriers to voting.

The history of voting for Native Americans is complicated. 

Native people weren't citizens of the United States until 1924, but it wasn't until 1948 that Indigenous people got the right to vote. 

Some couldn't access the ballot box until 1962. That’s because some states didn't want Native people participating in general elections.
