“Your Order Is a Direct Attack”: Native American Tribe Condemns Biden Administration | Rightwing...

And yet another group is unhappy with the Biden Administration. Didn't take them long

Meanwhile, the Ute Indian Tribe is not scared to blatantly respond to the Secretary of Interior’s Order that restricts federal energy development. In a letter sent to the office of the Secretary of Interior, they stated, “Your order is a direct attack on our economy, sovereignty, and our right to self-determination.”

De la Vega second-largest of the Ute Indian Tribe Business Committee, Luke Duncan, sent a letter to the Secretary of Interior requesting them to “immediately amend” Order No. 3395 to provide an exception for energy permits approvals on Indian lands.

The letter further explained that the Indian Tribe, among other energy-producing tribes, rely on energy development to fund their governments and provide services to their tribe members.

The tribes further wrote in their letter, “Your order is a direct attack on our economy, sovereignty, and our right to self-determination. Indian lands are not federal public lands. Any action on our lands and interests can only be taken after effective tribal consultation.”
