Thank you to ⁦TIME⁩ for this amazing honour! I’m so proud and humbled to be included in this incredible group. And huge thank you to ⁦the talented Julian Brave NoiseCat⁩ for your lovely words. 🧡 #TIME100 time.com/6964628/connie…

The $1.3B in funding we secured for Native housing is historic. It's a 30% increase that will greatly improve access to affordable homes for Native families—but it's still not enough
 
We're working every day in Senate Committee on Indian Affairs to deliver Native communities the funding they need

From the Blackfoot Confederacy:

“Lily Gladstone has undeniably left an indelible mark, breaking barriers and inspiring countless individuals with her remarkable presence and commitment to storytelling.”

Two mentions of Native American people from President Biden at #SOTU2024 , according to my count.

President Biden at #SOTU2024 : “We are the only nation in the world with a heart and soul that draws from old and new. Home to Native Americans whose ancestors have been here for thousands of years. Home to people from every place on earth.”

President Joe Biden addresses Native American communities in his 2024 State of the Union address when talking about the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, citing his, “record investments in tribal communities.”
