By providing citizenship to Native Americans, the 1924 Snyder Act—officially known as the Indian Citizenship Act or the Snyder Act of 1924—marked a momentous occasion in American history. Representative Homer P. Snyder sponsored this legislation, which gave Native Americans full citizenship rights, including the ability to vote and access to a range of social and economic advantages. In the ongoing process of acknowledging Native Americans’ contributions and sovereignty inside the United States, the Snyder Act was a critical step towards recognising their rights and position as citizens of the country.
