WA Senators have provided great leadership, as has Tulalip Vice-Chair Deborah Parker. Time for a thank you phone call, plus a call to your US Representative — their deliberation comes next. Pass VAWA with tribal provisions intact!
from Deborah Parker-
Attn. friends, family and VAWA supporters: We need your help! ON MONDAY, please call the Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and ask the operator to connect you to your Senator (or call as many key Senators as possible). When you’re connected to their offices, ask to speak to the staff person who handles VAWA. Tell
them:
“Today is an important day, the Senator has the chance to protect all women, including Native women. It’s time to be a hero and pass a comprehensive VAWA – S.47 – including the tribal provisions and I urge
the Senator to vote NO on the Coburn Amendment. I urge you to support the Murkowski and Leahy Amendments.”
THANK YOU for helping us advance the protections of Native women across the Country. Your support is appreciated.
Welcome! It is an honor to contribute and give another voice to the “The First Peoples” of our world.

Quote of the Month
Yes, our life energy must be a gift for our future. Your life, my life, everybody’s life must follow your given path. So pray or meditate. Follow your inner path and learn just how powerful you are and learn that you are a leader for your people, your family, your children, and the Mother Earth.

“Land acknowledgments meant to honor Indigenous people too often do the opposite — erasing American Indians and sanitizing history instead.” Tiokasin Ghosthorse explores the topic of land acknowledgements. The inspiration is an article that was published October 7, 2021 in The Conversation, an online, nonprofit, independent news outlet.
