Miguel Trujillo

Miguel H. Trujillo (1904–1989) was an American activist from Isleta Pueblo, who was instrumental to the case Trujillo v. Garley in 1948; before the case, New Mexico, like many other states, had a ruling that "Indians not taxed" were not legally allowed to vote. With the case Miguel successfully challenged this ruling.[1]
