Connection & source
Dated state legislative account of a continuing Long Island communityThe New York State Assembly member’s statement explicitly identifies the Montaukett Indian Nation as part of the Long Island community in its account of a New York recognition proposal. This supports a New York community connection; the bill’s proposal is not presented as enacted law. Inspection: Actual dated statement, HTML lines 25–32, inspected. Limits: The statement is advocacy by a legislator and is attributed as such. No present state or federal recognition conclusion, current leadership claim or historical court conclusion is adopted. A court’s former extinction assertion is not used as evidence of people’s disappearance.
