Representative Deb Haaland @repdebhaaland has been nominated to lead the Department of the Interior. If confirmed, she would be the first Native American to lead a cabinet-level agency.

It was an honor to feature Representative Deb Haaland in our series, and to speak with her about the state of women in national politics today, the challenges American Indians have faced fighting for citizenship and voting rights throughout American history, and the causes she’s passionate about, like addressing climate change. Check out our short film on the pioneering politician, passionate pacifist, and first woman elected to U.S. Congress, Jeannette Rankin, featuring Representative Haaland - link in our bio & on @pbsamericanmasters !
