⚖️ A Step Toward Justice – New Laws Honor and Protect Native Communities
🌿 A Voice Remembered, A People Protected
A powerful shift is happening across Indian Country.
In Arizona, a new law called the “Turquoise Alert” has been passed to help locate missing Indigenous people faster — bringing much-needed visibility to a long-overlooked crisis.
Meanwhile in Washington, lawmakers have reintroduced the Remove the Stain Act, calling for the removal of 20 Medals of Honor awarded after the Wounded Knee Massacre in 1890. This is more than legislation — it’s a call for healing and justice.
These steps reflect a growing recognition of Native history, dignity, and the right to be seen, protected, and remembered.
⚖️ From Recognition to Action
For generations, Native communities have called for protection, respect, and accountability.
The Turquoise Alert brings urgency and cultural understanding to a crisis affecting thousands of Native families. It’s a tool of hope.
The Remove the Stain Act, supported by tribal leaders and veterans alike, seeks to address a historical wrong — honoring those who suffered and opening the path to reconciliation.
