Earlier this year, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Watson v. Republican National Committee (RNC). Here's what you should know:

➡️ Currently 30 states, including WA, have a grace period for mail-in ballots. Ballots still count if they are sent by Election Day but arrive within a few days after Election Day.
➡️ If the Court rules in favor of RNC, this grace period would end.
➡️ Many Native voters could face barriers for voting in person and by mail due to geographic isolation from election centers and a lack of reliable vote-by-mail services.

The Washington Supreme Court just issued a letter acknowledging the historic and ongoing dehumanization of Indigenous peoples in state legal systems.

In the letter, the Washington Supreme Court justices recognize that “the dehumanization and discrimination of Indigenous communities in this state is not just the truth of the past but the reality of the present, including within our court system” and "commit to taking steps to address these injustices."

This response is an important step towards rectifying the harms inflicted upon Indigenous peoples and highlights the importance of Tribal advocacy.

Make sure the work doesn’t end here. Vote for Native candidates who will fight for Tribal sovereignty and justice for Indigenous communities in the next election.

While the concept of "Two-Spirit" has been around since before colonization, the term wasn't adopted into modern pan-Native vocabulary until 1990. This Pride Month, we uplift the voices of our Two-Spirit relatives.

We are often overlooked in remembrance on Memorial Day. We have served in every major U.S. conflict over the last 200 years, and we have the highest rate of military service of any ethnic group in the U.S. Today, we remember our relatives and loved ones who have passed.
