Native American tribes are not "sovereign citizens" in the sense of an individual claiming to be free from government authority. Instead, tribal sovereignty is the inherent right of American Indian tribes to govern themselves and exercise powers of self-government, recognized by the U.S. Constitution. Therefore, Native Americans are effectively dual citizens of their tribal nations and the United States, belonging to three sovereign entities: their tribe, their state, and the U.S. federal government.
Amish people are not Sovereign Citizens; the Amish are U.S. citizens who adhere to their religious beliefs, which lead them to cooperate with the government when necessary to maintain their way of life, whereas Sovereign Citizens are anti-government extremists who falsely claim to be exempt from laws and legal authority.
