Today is the last day of the month, which means that it is our major end of quarter fundraising deadline.
We are just about $536 short of our goal.
Can you share this and chip in to help us take back Arizona’s 2nd?

Amazing work by someone I'm honored to call a colleague and friend. @scbegonias She had the persistence and resilience to persevere when she was told this is "not research". UArizona researcher at the forefront of Indigenous data sovereignty shar.es/afFhAa

Some of our ASJ students had a great conversation with Morgan Rodman, Executive Director for the White House Council on Native American Affairs today. The conversation surrounded Data Sovereignty and Water/Land Rights. @NativeFEWS @UA_IResCenter

Today, alongside tribal leaders, I signed an Executive Order establishing the Task Force on Missing and Murdered Indigenous People. For too long, our state has ignored tribal leaders’ pleas for help addressing the crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous People. Today we are taking the first of many steps to stop the abuse, exploitation, and violence against Indigenous Peoples.

Our Ag Panel was something else! The words and wisdom shared today was powerful. The importance of recognizing our seeds and crops as living beings, people, cements the relationality of humans and its connection to our Mother Earth. @NativeFEWS @UA_IResCenter @NSFINCLUDESHub

Believing in math is a revolutionary change in the Colorado River Basin.
"I’m a big believer in law, I’m a big believer in food security, but I’m an even bigger believer in math," says John Enstminger of @SNWA_H2O. "The law is complicated, the politics are complicated, the science and the math are not complicated."

"Colorado River Compact marks a century but still has not considered Native Americans or ecosystem – “management” means over-allocation in legal framework negotiated by engineers, lawyers and politicians." - Elaine J. Hanford (a friend/colleague of @WaterWired)
