On Monday, the Nez Perce Tribe released a statement titled “We are all from here,” saying it was disheartened by the events that took place at the candidate forum last week where GOP Senator Dan Foreman told a Native American candidate to go back to where she came from. The Tribe said the region’s diverse population deserves leadership that represents and respects everyone.
