Sen. Elizabeth Warren claimed to be an “American Indian” when registering for the State Bar of Texas in 1986, the first example of her personally using her dubious accounts to further her career.
The Washington Post reported Tuesday that it had acquired, via an open records request, her registration card and a Post reporter tweeted out an image of the card.
The card, written in ink and signed personally by Ms. Warren, identifies her as an “American Indian.”
The document had not been previously reported and Ms. Warren has downplayed similar claims in other venues such as the Harvard Law School diversity reports, in part by saying the claim was made by others on her behalf.
According to the Post, Ms. Warren’s office didn’t dispute the card as an authentic document.
