We will never agree to a wall that is being built. We will never agree to what is being built now and this desecration of our sacred sites.
The Nation fully supports the purpose of Title IX, which is to strengthen tribal sovereignty and reaffirm tribal jurisdiction over non-Indian perpetrators.
We have raised these concerns numerous times, numerous times to Federal folks on the impacts that this border wall will have on our people.
The Nation supports the provisions included in the bipartisan Title IX discussion draft and respectfully requests that members of the Committee become co-sponsors of a full bipartisan Senate VAWA bill.
