Do you have a reservation?
The Sioux are taking a principled stand against the South Dakota abortion ban -- they've said it simply doesn't apply to their rez. Sioux Tribe President Cecelia Fire Thunder says she's planning to make abortions available at Pine Ridege. Now that's a good use of sovereign territory. The South Dakota attorney general did agree that the law didn't apply to the rez unless. Either the abortion provider or the patient were non-Indian. Really. And exactly how would that work? Would only 100% Sioux be allowed to partake? Everyone, quick, check your ancestry for Indian blood.
