卢米比族在137年斗争后获得长期以来的联邦承认

部落主席约翰·洛维里(John L. Lowery)对那些在部落争取认可的斗争中提供支持的人们表示感谢。“今天,我非常感谢所有帮助我们走到今天的人——从19世纪80年代末的祖先到现在。这么多人参与了这场斗争,”洛维里在部落社交媒体账户上发布的视频中说。

卢姆比部落(Lumbee Tribe)自1885年首次向美国政府申请认可以来,就一直在寻求联邦认可。尽管经历了多次尝试和挫折,但部落仍然继续推动认可,许多成员将他们的生命献给了这项事业。部落的努力终于随着法案的通过而获得了回报,该法案将联邦认可延伸到卢姆比部落及其大约60,000名注册成员。

预计该认可将为部落带来重大的利益,包括获得联邦资金和服务。它还将允许部落参与联邦政府的《印第安儿童福利法》(Indian Child Welfare Act),该法为美洲原住民家庭和儿童提供支持。另外,认可将使部落能够建立自己的执法机构和部落法院系统。

卢姆比部落争取认可的斗争是一场漫长而艰难的斗争,途中经历了许多挫折和挑战。然而,部落的坚持和决心最终得到了回报,其成员现在正在庆祝一场重大胜利。正如洛维里所指出的,这一认可不仅是卢姆比部落的胜利,也是那些在部落斗争中支持部落的许多个人和组织的胜利。

卢姆比部落的认可也被视为全国美洲原住民社区向前迈出的一大步。它凸显了联邦认可的重要性以及它能够为部落和其成员带来的益处。随着部落展望未来,预计它将继续与联邦和州官员合作,以确保其成员获得所需的支持和服务。

在一份声明中,卢姆比部落领导层对特朗普总统和美国国会表示感谢。“我们感谢我们的联邦和州合作伙伴的辛勤工作和奉献精神,他们帮助我们实现了这一历史性里程碑,”声明中写道。“我们期待继续与他们合作,为我们的部落和社区建设一个更美好的未来。”

The US Department of Justice has discovered over a million additional documents potentially linked to the late financier Jeffrey Epstein, citing the need for further review before releasing the information as mandated by the recently enacted Epstein Files Transparency Act. The delay in release has been attributed to the complexity of reviewing the large volume of documents, which is being conducted in collaboration with the US Attorney for the Southern District of New York and the FBI.

Canada Fast-Tracks Bill, Raising Fears of Tougher US-Style Border Policies

Canada's Liberal government is pushing forward with Bill C-12, a sweeping legislation that targets refugees and includes new border security measures. Critics argue the bill will usher in a US-style border policy, fueling xenophobia and scapegoating of immigrants, while proponents say it strengthens Canada's immigration system. If passed, the bill will introduce stricter eligibility rules for refugee claimants and expand executive power in information-sharing and immigration document control.
