The U.S. Senate recently confirmed multi-millionaire Steve Pearce to oversee the Bureau of Land Management (BLM).

The former U.S. Representative has a history of weakening protections for sacred sites, like when he voted to weaken the Antiquities Act.

The BLM is responsible for 245 million acres of Native land, including national monuments that Tribes co-manage such as Bears Ears, Chaco Canyon (also a UNESCO World Heritage Site), and Grand Staircase-Escalante.

These sacred places are under threat by those who believe Mother Earth is a commodity to be bought, sold, and exploited.

Native people on Turtle Island are more likely to experience houselessness than any other group.

Trump’s 2027 budget proposes eliminating essential programs and funding that supports Tribal housing, including the:

• Continuum of Care program
• Community Development Block Grant
• Equal Access Rule

These programs and policies are crucial in keeping our Two-Spirit and trans relatives safe.

Please urge your Members of Congress to reject Trump’s proposed cuts to these programs and policies. Protect Two-Spirit and gender-expansive relatives’ access to housing. Protect treaty rights and the human right to housing for all.

People across the political spectrum oppose the unchecked power of ICE agents. Yet, Congress chose to add billions to their already bloated budget. This is an affront to all of our rights and poses an extreme risk to everyone, especially our immigrant relatives. Native Organizers Alliance Action Fund will continue to work with our partners across the U.S. to help people understand their rights if confronted by ICE. We will also continue to support mutual aid and community care in locales targeted by ICE.

Native peoples will stand in solidarity for social justice and the health and well-being of all of our neighbors.

📍 Protecting Pipestone: Community Briefing & Public Comment Workshop
Pipestone has been a sacred place for Indigenous peoples since time immemorial; a place of prayer, ceremony, and connection. Today, this sacred place faces renewed threats from the proposed Magellan pipeline reroute, and community voices are needed now more than ever to deny any permit and protect Pipestone.
Join Indigenous Protector Movement, Brave Heart Society, and Indigenous Environmental Network for an afternoon of learning, discussion, and action. We will explore the cultural, spiritual, historical, ecological, and geological significance of Pipestone, hear updates on the current permit process, and discuss why this moment is so important.
After the presentations, volunteers will be available to help community members submit comments to the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission before the public comment period closes.
🗓 June 22 | 1:00–4:00 PM
📍 Minneapolis American Indian Center
Whether you're already involved or just learning about Pipestone for the first time, we invite you to join us, ask questions, and stand up for one of the most sacred places on this continent.
No pipeline. No reroute. Protect Pipestone.

Deb Haaland has won the New Mexico Democratic Primary for Governor!

The former member of Congress and Interior secretary is a step closer to becoming the first Native American female governor in U.S. history. Native Organizers Alliance Action Fund proudly endorsed Deb last year and celebrates this historic moment in her campaign.

"I think representation matters, especially in a political era such as this one. So, I’m really proud and honored to carry on the legacy of my ancestors, who worked so incredibly hard to make sure that I had a place here today," said Deb on her win.
