The Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 granted U.S. citizenship to Native Americans, allowing them to vote in federal elections. However, many states enacted laws and policies that effectively disenfranchised Native Americans until the 1950s and 1960s. Some states did not permit Native Americans to vote until the Supreme Court ruled in 1965 that states could not deny voting rights based on race or ethnicity.
