A Native American advocacy group is urging U.S. Rep. Patrick Kennedy to support a bill that would make it easier for certain tribes — including the Narragansetts — to acquire land and have it placed in federal trust. Kennedy –– co-chairman of the Congressional Native American Caucus — should “work toward the best interests” of Indians across the country, including the Narragansetts, said Domingo Monroe, chairman of the United for Justice Campaign.
