Sen. Heidi Heitkamp, D-N.D., who introduced the bill with Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said Thursday she hopes the House will approve the bill as soon as possible so the president can sign it into law. “Native American children are some of the most vulnerable children in the country, yet there isn’t an AMBER Alert system in much of Indian Country, and that makes it very difficult to recover children who have been abducted or who have run away,” Heitkamp said. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
