Deb Haaland to serve as Secretary of the Interior | 2020-12-18 | 2020 | 2020-12 | Democrat | House | MD | Steny Hoyer | H000874 | www.majorityleader.gov | legacy | WASHINGTON, DC House Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer (MD) released the following statement tonight after President-Elect Joe Biden announced he is nominating Rep.Deb Haaland to serve asSecretary of the Interior:"Since coming to Congress, Deb Haaland has not only been a close friend but an outstanding advocate for her constituents, for Native American nations, for land and water conservation, and for the preservation of America's heritage. She is a smart and effective Member of Congress, one of the first Native American women to be elected, and I have no doubt that she will make an excellent Secretary of the Interior, making history as the first Native American to hold that position as well. I look forward to working with Sec.-designate Haaland to ensure that our public lands are protected for current and future generations and that Native Americans have every opportunity to get ahead and make it in America." | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
