Getting the word out on missing persons in Native American communities

One of three bills Senator Tester wants pushed through the senate is the Amber Alert in Indian Country Act. Should this bill become law, the Justice Department will be required to help tribal law enforcement build an amber alert system in tribal communities.

Senator Tester explained in a press release that right now many tribal agencies don't have the right support to communicate with other agencies or the FBI.
