📰 The Trump Administration is delivering critical disaster assistance to Indian Country. $1.7 million in federal assistance has been approved for the Oglala Sioux Tribe following severe storms, tornadoes and flooding.

I just got off the phone with President Donald J. Trump. He informed me of this funding for both the state and the Oglala Sioux Tribe, which will help our communities recover from these devastating storms. Thank you, Mr. President!

Earlier today, Native American service members of the Arizona Air National Guard’s 161st Air Refueling Wing attended a ceremony at Wesley Bolin Plaza in Phoenix honoring the service and sacrifice of the Navajo Code Talkers.

While the Navajo Code Talkers are among the most well-known, Native Americans from several tribes, including the Choctaw, Comanche, Cherokee and others, served as Code Talkers during World War I and World War II. They drew on their Native languages to help protect military communications and support U.S. forces in combat.

On National Navajo Code Talkers Day, Indian Affairs honors the Native American service members who have answered the call to serve - from the Code Talkers of World War I to the Native service members carrying that legacy forward today. We remember their sacrifice, celebrate their legacy and honor the Native languages that played a vital role in our nation’s defense.

Indian Affairs is proud to honor the service of Native veterans and service members and help preserve the legacy of those who served for generations to come.
