Stansbury Releases Statement on Indigenous Peoples' Day | 2024-10-21 | 2024 | 2024-10 | Democrat | House | NM | Melanie A. Stansbury | S001218 | stansbury.house.gov | stansbury | https://stansbury.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | ALBUQUERQUE — U.S. Representative Melanie Stansbury (NM-01) released the following statement on Indigenous Peoples' Day: “We must honor and celebrate Indigenous peoples and our sovereign Tribal Nations here in New Mexico - and all across the world - today and every day, " said Rep. Melanie Stansbury (NM-01). "New Mexico’s Tribes and Pueblos have stewarded the lands and waters of our state since time immemorial, and their cultures, traditions, and languages are woven deeply into the fabric of our heritage and ways of life. "On Indigenous Peoples' Day, we recognize and celebrate the contributions Indigenous people have made in the state and across the U.S.: from the Navajo Code Talkers in World War II to Miguel Trujillo, a champion of Native voting rights, to our own Secretary Deb Haaland, who is blazing the way forward as our country's first Indigenous Cabinet Secretary. "Today is also a day to reflect on the history and resilience of our Indigenous nations, especially in the face of an often painful past. We must ensure we confront this history head-on, redoubling our commitment to building a more just and powerful world celebrating our Indigenous communities.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T21:57:20Z |
