No one from the Lower 48 is coming to save us. We need someone in the Senate who’s actually from Alaska fighting for Alaska, every single day.

Honored to share how we’re building a more reflective democracy by recruiting Native candidates who are closest to the source of our challenges and who lead with lived experience.
We’re cultivating a new politics of care, both for our brilliant leaders and the communities they serve. #NN27

I’ve been quietly sitting with the historic nature of Deb Haalands nomination to be Governor of New Mexico. She’ll lead the 8th all-woman Gov/LG ticket in US history, and first Native woman to serve as Governor of any state.
You are our ancestors wildest dreams, Auntie Deb.
