Frank Star Comes Out: “We are pleased to participate with the Oglala Sioux Tribe to recover these Wounded Knee lands.”

We thank our South Dakota Senators and Congressman, Dusty Johnson, for their leadership on this important matter concerning Wounded Knee.

It is time that we are heard. We need to be listened to. We are not sitting here begging for help. We are asking you to hold up to your end of the bargain with our treaty obligations because that has definitely choked us out.

We reclaim the sacred ground not just for ourselves, but for all members of the Oceti Sakowin.

We urge Congress to quickly pass this bill and respectfully ask President Biden to sign it into law.
