The Native American Rights Fund last month reporte

The Native American Rights Fund last month reported national growth trends among tribal populations for voter turnout, including a 14 percentage point increase between 2018 and 2020. Because of long-standing barriers, there is still a significant gap compared with non-Hispanic white voters.

Erika Red Tomahawk, state and tribal policy coordinator for North Dakota Native Vote, said in responding to the concerns, her team connected with attendees at powwows and other gatherings across all reservations in North Dakota.

"There was a lot of meaningful conversations about the importance of voting, with even some individuals expressing that they were going to run for official positions themselves," Red Tomahawk observed. "It was clear that there was a strong desire to participate actively within civic processes."

The Empowering Rural America grants are changing the game for electric cooperatives! With support from the Inflation Reduction Act, rural communities will benefit from investments in renewable energy and energy efficiency. To receive these funds, Basin and Minnkota must complete Community Benefits Plans. Over the next year they will have to engage with local governments, farmers/ranchers, and rural communities to design programs that will benefit those populations. NDNV plans to engage with ND tribal members to make sure we are pushing for substantial, tangible community benefits for these impacted communities to ensure we can say goodbye to high energy costs and hello to a sustainable, reliable energy future!
