I was informed that: Indian Tribes are allowed to contribute to state political campaigns by way of an 1880s treaty that grants them status as a "domestic foreign government" (?). Indian Tribes may participate in the state affairs but are not subject to our laws...
Anyone reading this know anything about this 1880 treaty?

One of these gentlemen might know, or be able to help you find answers.
