Native Forum: "Elizabeth Warren Maybe ‘One Of The Favorites’"

"Forum attendees welcomed Sen. Elizabeth Warren with lulus and a standing ovation after Rep. Deb Haaland, Laguna Pueblo, introduced the presidential candidate on stage at the largest and second Native American presidential forum.

Haaland, who also received welcoming applause, spent approximately 25 minutes introducing the Massachusetts senator. Other candidates’ introductions were scheduled for around two minutes.

The New Mexico representative decided to address Warren’s ancestry controversy in the beginning so the panelists could focus on the issues. "
