Native American communities are expressing optimism about President Trump's selection of Senator Markwayne Mullin for Department of Homeland Security Secretary. Mullin, who is Cherokee, could address concerns about ICE agents allegedly targeting Native Americans based on race.
Native American communities across the country are responding positively to President Trump’s nomination of Senator Markwayne Mullin to lead the Department of Homeland Security. Mullin, who belongs to the Cherokee Nation, represents what many tribal leaders see as an opportunity for better representation at the federal level.
The appointment comes at a time when Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers have faced allegations of targeting Native Americans through racial profiling practices. Tribal communities hope that having one of their own in this key leadership position could help address these longstanding concerns about discriminatory enforcement tactics.
