Frederica Freyberg:

Now an update from Wisconsin's Native American population. Stockbridge-Munsee president Shannon Holsey gave the annual State of the Tribes address at the capitol Tuesday. Here’s what she had to say about working with state lawmakers.

Shannon Holsey:

We have partnerships waiting to be developed. We have collaborators waiting to bring their expertise and experience. We have each other. We have economies to build, generations to educate, language and conservation to protect, glass ceilings to shatter, communities to expand and relationships to build. Let us not seek the republican answer or the democrat answer, but the right answer. Let us not seek to fix the blame for the past. Let us accept our own responsibility for the future.
