Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz welcomed new federal COVID-19 guidance Tuesday allowing vaccinated people to go mask-free in many outdoor settings, even though it will have little practical impact in a state that mostly required them indoors. The relaxed mask guidance from the CDC is another sign of progress against the pandemic that Walz said could result in a further scaling back of restrictions and capacity limits in the next week in Minnesota. "Masks coupled with vaccines is really the path out of...

WASHINGTON - Americans will have more time to get the Real ID that they will need to board a flight or enter federal facilities. The Department of Homeland Security on Tuesday extended the Real ID deadline until May 3, 2023. The deadline had been Oct. 1, 2021, but it was becoming clear that many people wouldn't make it, in part because the COVID-19 outbreak has made it harder for states to issue new licenses. Congress passed the Real ID Act in 2005 to establish minimum security standards for...
After a long year and a lot of anticipation, getting the COVID-19 vaccine can be cause for celebration, which for some might mean pouring a drink and toasting to their new immunity. But can alcohol interfere with your immune response? The short answer is that it depends on how much you drink. There is no evidence that having a drink or two can render any of the current COVID vaccines less effective. Some studies have even found that over the longer term, small or moderate amounts of alcohol...

It calls for providing federal funds to help the states offer preschool, with teachers and other employees earning $15 an hour. "These...

WASHINGTON – The Department of the Interior today took several steps to honor our nation-to-nation relationship with Tribes and uphold our trust and treaty responsibilities to them.

Taking land into trust is one of the most important functions Interior undertakes on behalf of Tribes. Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland issued Secretary’s Order 3400, which re-delegates the autho...

CNN has a problem when it comes to Native Americans. For a news media outlet that is often touted as being too liberal, CNN does not seem to get it right when it comes to the Indigenous peoples of this continent. In recent months CNN has had two notable blunders when it comes to how it refers to Native Americans. When stratifying racial and ethnic groups in demographic comparisons, Native Americans are often referred to as "other." During its election night coverage in November 2020, CNN left...

Alaska legislators consider state recognition of tribes Tribes exist and have the right to make their own laws and live by them. So say the U.S. Constitution and countless laws, regulations, and programs that fund tribes to exercise self-governance and tribal sovereignty. Getting the state of Alaska to acknowledge that is the intent of a bill moving through the state legislature. The legislation would require state recognition of the long-standing legal status of Alaska’s 229 federally recognized tribes and wouldn’t affect how tribal gov...

As a result, those cases are not fully investigated and remain unsolved. Cases of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women...
GREATER MINNESOTA -- April 28, 2021 -- This summer, seven lakes in Beltrami County are likely to get increased protection from Starry stonewort, a dangerous and relatively new aquatic invasive species (AIS). One million dollars in funding has been included in the House and Senate Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund (ENRTF), which would put five boat-cleaning stations on each access on every lake that has been infested with Starry stonewort. “This is an imperative containment strategy,” said Jeff Forester, Executive Director of Min...
