Deb Haaland
The Public Record
Deb Haaland is a prominent American politician and member of the Democratic Party, currently serving as the U.S. Secretary of the Interior since March 16, 2021. She previously represented New Mexico's 1st congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives from January 3, 2019, until her appointment as Secretary. Haaland is notable for being one of the first two Native American women elected to Congress, marking a significant milestone in U.S. political history.

This will protect public health and our environment, create millions of jobs, and mitigate the impacts of climate change for all communities and all generations, especially those disproportionately impacted.
As chair of the Native American Caucus, I am working to address the federal neglect and under investment in Indian Country.
So, in your opinion, what will be the impact of that office no longer having anyone there, much less any scientific leadership that sounds badly needed for those people, those Americans living in Alaska?
