The history of South Carolina is inseparable from the history of our Native American tribes. Today, I joined tribal leaders as they signed a first-of-its-kind treaty that strengthens tribal unity and the preservation of Native American culture in South Carolina.

It was a momentous day in Indian Country! The Wassamasaw Tribe proudly joined fellow state and federally recognized tribes in a historic treaty signing—the first such agreement in South Carolina as well as the nation.

This is a significant step forward in our tribe's pursuit of recognition. We are deeply grateful to our community members, both those who were able to witness this occasion and those who offered their support from afar. It's a wonderful time to be a Wassamasaw Indian.

On this Memorial Day we remember all our Native people who have given their lives for their county. Native Americans serve in the United States’ Armed Forces at five times the national average.
