The day before Deb Haaland was sworn in last week as a freshman lawmaker in the most diverse US House of Representatives class in history, she said the weight of being one of the first two Native American women to serve in congress had not yet fully hit her. Haaland, 58, had just conducted a brief staff meeting and was sitting in her new office on Capitol Hill as staffers got phones working and solved logistical problems like wrestling a printer through a narrow doorway. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/deb-haaland-j...
ALBUQUERQUE — Quantina Martine’s symptoms have been worsening since October. First, there was a terrible pain in her right arm that sent her to the emergency room. Now, she has lost so much sensation in the arm that she can’t hold anything. For three months, Martine has been pushing for the surgery she needs to relieve her symptoms, caused by a brain condition called a Chiari malformation. http://www.santafenewmexican.com/news/local_news/new-mexico-federal-workers-feel-pain-of-shutdown/article_0b7e2fc2-c25d-5c07-b1f9-86f1b16...
With the partial federal government shutdown dragging on, Navajo Nation President Russell Begaye says Congress should exempt tribes from feeling the effects. Historically, treaties with the U.S. government have guaranteed the Navajo and many other tribes federal financial assistance for health, education and economic development. So the shutdown is having an outsized impact. On the Navajo Nation, half of the tribe is unemployed. But at least 5,000 tribal members rely on paychecks from the federal government. Missing one, which happened for the...

Herrera v. Wyoming, an Indian treaty-rights case argued in the Supreme Court last Tuesday, revolves around a basic of federal Indian law: No promise to Indian people actually binds the United States. Congress can unilaterally void any treaty or agreement. The only limit on this power so far has been a requirement that Congress say it is doing so. It is not supposed to act by “implication.” Whether that rule holds true will likely depend on the attitudes of the Court’s two newest justices. The formal issue in Herrera is the conviction of a Cro...
Tsuut'ina High School students trek out on a snowy path just behind their school, making their way to their wilderness survival class in a wooded area on the southern Alberta First Nation.

RAPID CITY, S.D. (KOTA TV) -- A Rapid City woman accused of stabbing a man to death last month pleaded not guilty Friday to second degree murder charges. Prosecutors say Lorraine Swallow stabbed her nephew Tyrell Bull Bear "multiple times" after an altercation on Dec. 8 at a residence on Castle Heights Place.

Judge Matthew Brown lowered Swallow's bond from $100,000 cash only to $100,000 cash or surety but Swallow's lawyer indicated Swallow would still be unable to post that amount. Swallow faces a...
