Deb Haaland

I just want to say thank you, Professor Deer, for raising the issue of colonization because it has wreaked havoc on our people.

Thank you, Representative Ruth Buffalo, for running and winning your seat.

We need Federal law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, to start accurately logging race and tribal affiliation in their database of missing persons.

I appreciate the work that you have done in your state to address the epidemic of MMIW and human trafficking.

The silent crisis of missing and murdered indigenous women has been my top priority since long before being sworn into Congress.

Federal agencies should only receive funding for the development of these guidelines if they have a plan for meaningful consultation with tribal leaders and families of MMIW.

As a Nation, I believe we are better than this. Please support the families of MMIW to find their loved ones and bring them home.

As a Member of the U.S. Congress, we all take an oath that we are bound by to support and defend the Constitution.

Indigenous women deserve to be protected just like anyone else in this country.

Any negotiated settlement must include respect for human rights and the rights of women in particular.

We have a military housing crisis on our hands, not just in my district, but nationwide, and we need to fix it.

Congress's failure to adequately fund Indian country is a fundamental violation of this trust responsibility.

I urge you to address the serious problems Indian tribes face.

It is a safety and public hazard, and it is also wreaking havoc on-- economically, on citizens who live near these spills.

I urge the committee to develop a budget that robustly supports our commitment to efficient, renewable energy and investments in job training for a green economy.

I urge you to provide funding to allow work to expand Sandia and Kirtland to increase our national security.

Our budget should fully fund the Land and Water Conservation Fund to maximize habitat protection, public access, public recreation, and historic preservation.

I urge you to fully fund the Payment in Lieu of Taxes program and the Secure Rural Schools program.

That is why we run for Congress, it is one of the reasons why so many of us ran for Congress because we want to make things right for people.

We should just-- everybody should just be who they are and everyone should accept them for that.

regardless of what the President says, there are millions of Americans who appreciate the service that you have given to our country

As a 35th-generation New Mexican, I rise today in support of S. 47. This bill represents a major victory for conservation, and I want to congratulate the chairman and his co- drafters on its success. In my home State of New Mexico, new…

I believe if there is one person that isn't fit to serve, we all know who that is right now.

We have actually built out an MSW practicum program because we are treating these dips with parity.

Our people are dying. People are dying in a manner that we can't control.
