Today 147 years ago the Lakota’s and Northern Cheyenne wiped out Custer and the 7th Calvary at the battle of the Little Big Horn while they were illegally invading our homelands. That day we captured the American flag in battle and have never returned it to this day. #LandBack

Rep. LaurieBeth Hager, Rep. @zacista, a large coalition of organizations & individual NoDakotans have worked hard to continue advancing this important funding proposal. When kids have healthy meals, they are more focused, learn better & are less likely ti have behavior issues.

The Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa is the first tribe in the U.S. to add organ donation registration to its tribal identification cards. The program came about after the family of one of its youngest members fought to get him a transplant. kfyrtv.com/2022/11/14/turtle…

Azure said Greyson’s life is like a metaphor because he’s continuing to live through the initiative just like an organ donor lives on through the people they save.

Happy New Year #TurtleMountains! Even though it’s a brand new year, we have to remember we are still in a pandemic, and in order to get ahead of the potential surge, Tribal Council has decided to limit in-person Tribal Operations, for the health and safety of community members.
