We should have a holiday that celebrates America’s Tribal Nations, not one that celebrates the violence against them. It’s time to end Columbus Day and start recognizing #IndigenousPeoplesDay as a federal holiday.

NM replaced Columbus Day with #IndigenousPeoplesDay back in 2019. It’s time for Congress to follow that example federally. Let’s celebrate the incredible strength and resilience of America's Tribal Nations. https://t.co/FlwEvRoDsn

I like to honor Columbus Day by walking into places that are already inhabited and announcing that I just discovered them. Then, if anyone complains, I give them small pox.

@JoeBiden Happy Columbus Day, Joe. You had nothing to do with any of what your staffers tweet just said. However, take a day off, you earned it. By doing nothing for the last 9 months.
