Another instance has surfaced where Sen. Elizabeth Warren identified herself as Native American, this time when registering for the State Bar of Texas.

On the 1986 registration card, obtained by the Washington Post, the Democrat from Massachusetts identified her race as “American Indian.”

Warren, who is in the running for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020, has faced criticism, especially from President Trump, for her claims to Native American heritage decades ago when applying for law school professorships.

Trump has called Warren “Pocahontas” and said that he would donate $1 million to a charity of her choosing if she took a DNA test and proved that she is Native American.

Warren has maintained her claims to aboriginal blood, and publicized a DNA test that revealed she is as little as 1/1024th American Indian, which is less than the average European American.

Last week, Warren issued a private apology to the Cherokee Nation for making the test results public, the first time on record that she apologized for the ordeal. The specifics of the apology were not made public.

“I can’t go back,” Warren told the Post . “But I am sorry for furthering confusion on tribal sovereignty and tribal citizenship and harm that resulted.”

In the 2020 race, Warren will need to appeal to minority, nonwhite voters to be successful.

The Democratic field is expected to be crowded, and more than a half dozen have already entered a bid and launched their campaigns, including fellow Sens. Kamala Harris, Calif., Kirsten Gillibrand, N.Y., and Cory Booker, N.J.
