This isn’t “government efficiency”—it’s government neglect.
The Phoenix BIA office serves over 40 tribes, handling everything from economic development to child social services. I’m demanding answers from the GSA and fighting to keep these offices open.

Tribes and Native American students sue over Bureau of Indian Education firings
Firings at two colleges as part of the administration’s cuts to federal agencies, with the help of Elon Musk, have left students and staff with unsafe conditions, canceled classes, and delayed financial aid, according to the lawsuit Friday. Lawyers at the Native American Rights Fund filed the suit in federal court in the nation's capital against the heads of the Interior Department, the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Office of Indian Education Programs on behalf of the Pueblo of Isleta, the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation, and the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes.
