Dear Senators,

On March 4, the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee voted to recommend that U.S. Rep. Deb Haaland of New Mexico be confirmed as the 45th Secretary of the Interior. The final vote will likely come next week.

We urge you to vote to confirm this history-making nominee, the first Native and first woman to lead the Department of the Interior.

The appointment of Rep Haaland as Secretary of Interior has bipartisan support. She has earned the support of her House colleagues on both sides of the aisle. She also has a history of passing bipartisan legislation.

Congresswoman Haaland is ready to lead. She is highly qualified. She has been a business owner, worked in tribal government, and had an accomplished career in public service. She served as the Vice-Chair of the House Natural Resources Committee and Chair of its Subcommittee on National Parks, Forests and Public Lands.

It’s time for Native leadership. The Department of Interior directly impacts tribal communities more than any other department in the Federal government. The Department of Interior has never been led by a Native person in its 171-year history. It’s time.

You may have differences of opinion with Haaland. But you cannot argue that Haaland is not highly qualified and will enact the policies of President Joe Biden. Confirming Deb Haaland as Secretary of the Interior will make history. She will help put our priorities back into balance. She will represent all Americans, including rural and tribal communities. There is no one better prepared to protect and manage the natural resources and cultural heritage of this land.

Vote to confirm Deb Haaland as Secretary of the Interior.
