“...it will require a massive infusion of resources over generations...”

Guess what that means.

Some Indian tribes are doing very well, due to development such as casinos and resort hotels .

Is this an attempt to start a liberal monologue, along the lines of other liberal talking points? We will dredge up the sins of the past and yack endlessly about how people were victims ??

Heck maybe we will even see liberals.talk of reparations for Indians, similar to talk of reparations for slavery.

I used to work with a lady whose husband was, IIRC, one-fourth Native American. He and their children all received some monthly reparations money from the US Government (taxpayers) for the rest of their lives due to whatever abuses it had been determined were done to his ancestors. I am curious as to whether that program is still in effect. If so, what is the criteria, and how much money do they get. Did FLOTUS mention that this?
