When were all Native Americans granted citizenship in the US?
The earliest recorded date of Native Americans' becoming U.S. citizens was in 1831 when the Mississippi Choctaw became citizens after the United States Legislature ratified the Treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek. Under article XIV of that treaty, any Choctaw who elected not to move with the Choctaw Nation could become an American citizen. There has been considerable debate about Native American U.S. citizenship. In 1857, Cheif Justice Roger B. Taney expressed that since Native Americans were "free and independent people" that they could become U.S. citizens. Prior to the passage of the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924, nearly two-thirds of Native Americans were already U.S. citizens. The act of 1924 granted U.S. citizenship to those Native Americans who were not already U.S. citizens.
Congress passed the Indian Citizenship Act in 1924 that allowed some Native Americans the vote However some states?
In 1924 American Indian world war I veterans came home to find that they still were not able to vote . To rectify that the Indian Citizen Act was passed giving the Indian that right. However, many of the states still denied the American Indian this basic right. Arizona did not allow Indians to vote until they could read and write the US constitution without any help until the US government forced them to repeal that state law in 1965. Maine would not allow Indians to vote until 1954 in federal elections and not until 1967 were they allow to vote in state elections. Utah held out until 1957 and New Mexico did not allow the Indian to vote until 1962. These states were not the only ones who defied federal law and did not allow the Indian the vote.
When were native Americans considered US citizens?
Native American U.S. citizenship is a complex issue involving hundreds of tribes and Indian organizations. The earliest recorded date of Native Americans becoming U.S. citizens was in 1831 when the Mississippi Choctaw became citizens after the ratification of the Treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek. Citizenship could also be obtained by, 1. Treaty Provision (as with the Mississippi Choctaw) 2. Allotment under the Act of February 8, 1887 3. Issuance of Patent in Fee Simple 4. Adopting Habits of Civilized Life 5. Minor Children 6. Citizenship by Birth 7. Becoming Soldiers and Sailors in the U.S. Armed Forces 8. Marriage 9. Special Act of Congress. It wasn't until after many Indians returned from fighting in WWI that some Americans felt obligated to make them citizens. The Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 granted U.S. citizenship entirely to America's indigenous peoples, called "Indians" in this Act. Other tribes who became U.S. citizens before 1924 were the Wyandot, Ottawa of the united bands of Blanchard's Fork and of Roche de Bœuf, and the Tsimshian & Metlakahtlans. NOVANET ANSWER IS 1924

The Indian Citizenship Act was passed in 1955. It defines who is considered a citizen of India and outlines the ways in which citizenship can be acquired or lost.
What Act of 1924 gave American Indians the right of US citizenship?
With Congress' passage of the Indian Citizenship Act, the government of the United States confers citizenship on all Native Americans born within the territorial limits of the country. Before the Civil War, citizenship was often limited to Native Americans of one-half or less Indian blood. In the Reconstruction period, progressive Republicans in Congress sought to accelerate the granting of citizenship to friendly tribes, though state support for these measures was often limited. In 1888, most Native American women married to U.S. citizens were conferred with citizenship, and in 1919 Native American veterans of World War I were offered citizenship. In 1924, the Indian Citizenship Act, an all-inclusive act, was passed by Congress. The privileges of citizenship, however, were largely governed by state law, and the right to vote was often denied to Native Americans in the early 20th century.

The Synder Act of 1924 gave US Citizenship to the all the Indian Nations within US.The text of the 1924 Indian Citizenship Act (43 U.S. Stats. At Large, Ch. 233, p. 253 (1924)) reads as follows:BE IT ENACTED by the Senate and house of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That all non citizen Indians born within the territorial limits of the United States be, and they are hereby, declared to be citizens of the United States: Provided That the granting of such citizenship shall not in any manner impair or otherwise affect the right of any Indian to tribal or other property." Approved, June 2, 1924. June 2, 1924. [H. R. 6355.] [Public, No. 175.] SIXTY-EIGHTH CONGRESS. Sess. I. CHS. 233. 1924. See House Report No. 222, Certificates of Citizenship to Indians, 68th Congress, 1st Session, Feb. 22, 1924. Note: This statute has been codified in the United States Code at Title 8, Sec. 1401(b).Therefore American Indians were no longer imprisoned on reservations and could travel as any other American. This is not to say they did as there was a considerable amount of racial prejudice preventing the American Indian from going to and staying in certain places.

Is not this entire discussion erroneous because the term citizen is not defined as either statutory citizenship or constitutional citizenship?
Yes. The U.S. Constitution excludes "Indians not taxed" and thus the 1924 Act granting citizenship to "Indians" recognizes that it, as a mere statute, does not affect the constitutional status of "Indians" which therefore remains the same as before the Act. Rodolfo Rivera Munoz, "Indian" Lawyer.
