The Non-Removable Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe endorses Keith Ellison for Attorney General of Minnesota. As a sovereign tribal nation, the Mille Lacs Band supports local, state, and federally elected leaders who believe in respectful government-to-government relations between tribes and honor the inherent rights of tribal self-governance and tribal self-determination.
Keith has been a leader on social justice issues and understands the importance of respecting the reserved rights of American Indian tribes negotiated via treaty and is an advocate for policies that ensure the health and well being of Indigenous peoples and all others.
Through the leadership of Keith Ellison, the Mille Lacs Band looks forward to a continued commitment of addressing racial disparities and efforts to improve the health and well-being of our communities.
