  It’s especially disturbing since the US Constitution explicitly mentions Indian lands as being sovereign, so this resolution’s statement that sovereign tribal lands are anti-Constitution is totally nonsensical from a legal standpoint. Not even mentioning the racism inherent in the statements in the resolution.
context: A copy of the Montana resolution can be found here.
  This harkens back to the disastrous Termination policies of the 1940's-1960's where Congress abolished & privatized reservation trust land and dissolved American Indian tribal governments.  My tribe was terminated in 1954-1974.  Valuable prime real estate was then sold off against our will by a non-Native run corporation.  This news is deeply disturbing to me.
