Cherokee Nation Wants US to Make Good on 1835 Promise - newser.com
Excerpt from this article:
"The Cherokee people have lived on the land now known as the United States of America for millennia. And yet the Cherokee Nation has never sent a delegate to Congress, something the Nation is now seeking to change. When the Treaty of New Echota was signed in 1835, it booted the Cherokee off their land and designated land in Oklahoma and $5 for them - and it specifically gave them the right to send a delegate to the House of Representatives."
