The two-term New Mexican congresswoman was nominated by President Biden in December to lead the Interior Department. The Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources held two days of confirmation hearings this week.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Haaland, who\u2019s Laguna and Jemez Pueblo, made history in 2018 becoming one of two Native American women elected to Congress (Sharice Davids of Kansas was elected at the same time). Representing New Mexico\u2019s 1st Congressional District, she\u2019s tried to fashion a bipartisan approach, something she repeatedly championed in front of the Senate committee. Haaland has been a strong advocate for Indigenous and environmental issues, two areas under her purview if she\u2019s confirmed. A number of Republicans oppose Haaland\u2019s appointment, citing concerns for the future of the oil and gas industry.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This week, correspondent Antonia Gonzales gets reaction and insight from a group of Native women about what this historic moment means to Indian Country.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br><strong>Correspondent:<\/strong>&nbsp;Antonia Gonzales&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br><strong>Guests:<\/strong>&nbsp;<br>Kiera Toya, National UNITY Council co-president, Jemez Pueblo&nbsp; &nbsp;<br>Shayai Lucero, floral designer\/STEM expert, Acoma\/Laguna Pueblo &nbsp;<br>Holly Cook Macarro, Spirit Rock Consulting, Red Lake Nation&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For More Information:<\/strong>&nbsp;<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.krqe.com\/news\/national\/deb-haaland-hearing-is-indian-countrys-obama-moment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Indian Country Gripped by Haaland Nomination<\/a> \u2013 <em>Associated Press<\/em> (KRQE-TV)&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>February 26, 2021 \u2013 Native Americans in New Mexico and across the country are hopeful Deb Haaland will become the first Native American Cabinet secretary.
