But as noted in the OP, Eastern Band of Cherokee Principal Chief Richard Sneed is quoted as saying that "Warren has sponsored legislation to help prevent suicides in Native American populations, identify missing and murdered Native American women, and help tribes reacquire land they once owned".
Here is a link to much other Native American legislation that Warren has sponsored or co-sponsored

I won't argue whether or not any of that makes her a "hero". But why would the author of the op-ed say that "she has done nothing to advance our rights". Whether she has or hasn't, it certainly appears that she's been trying.
Do you think it was fair for her to say that?
