Senators want to step up investigations of missing or abused Native women

Two Nebraska state senators who have teamed on other Native issues and projects will introduce a bill in January to investigate missing Native women and cases of violence against them.

Sens. Tom Brewer of Gordon and Patty Pansing Brooks of Lincoln will model the bill after one passed in Washington state this year that directed its state patrol to study how to increase resources toward reporting and identifying missing Native women.
