NRDems Forum: Coronavirus Response in Indian Country

Date: Friday, April 17, 2020 Time: 01:00 PM

We’re fighting to ensure that Native Americans have the health care and economic support they need, both during and after the coronavirus pandemic. Resources for #CoronavirusIndianCountry have been severely lacking for too long, and it’s costing lives. We’re hosting a live roundtable on Friday, April 17 at 1 p.m. Eastern with Chair Raul M. Grijalva and tribal panelists to hear firsthand how the #Coronavirus is affecting Indian Country.

Confirmed speakers include:

Chair Grijalva
Peggy Flanagan, lieutenant governor of Minnesota
Jonathan Nez, president of the Navajo Nation, which currently reports the highest per capita infection rate outside of New York and New Jersey
Michael Chavarria, governor of the Pueblo of Santa Clara, New Mexico
Jerilyn Church, chief executive officer of the Great Plains Tribal Chairmen’s Health Board
Diana Zirul, vice chairwoman of the Alaska Native Health Board
