I recently met with Representatives Sarah Lemieux and George Stacy from the @HoChunkNationPR's legislature. We talked about a number of issues, including ways to honor the 14 Ho-Chunk veterans who the U.S. Department of Defense officially recognizes as Code Talkers.

It’s Ho-Chunk Day! Are you coming to the pow wow today?
The Indian Child Welfare Act helped reverse those destructive polices. It ensures that Native children stay connected to their families and cultures. I’m grateful to the federal and Tribal lawyers who worked so hard to prepare for the Supreme Court session today. 3/5

Today, with @HoChunkNationPR President WhiteEagle, we raised the flag of the Ho-Chunk Nation at Bascom Hall. This is the first of three times this fall that the flag will fly over campus, on land recognized as the ancestral home of the Ho-Chunk people. news.wisc.edu/ho-chunk-natio…

The @HoChunkNationPR flag is flying at Bascom Hall for the first of three times this fall.   @UWMadison hasn’t always acknowledged how its history is intertwined with the Native Nations of Wisconsin.

We are nearing quorum for our 2022 Annual General Council at Warner Park in Madison, WI! The magic number is 1,236 voting eligible tribal members.
Today the Nation signs an MOU with @DeptVetAffairs for the Native American Direct Loan program! This will provide a financing option for eligible veterans for homes on tribal trust land. #supportVets
