Guest Opinion. Claremore Indian Hospital holds a special place in my heart. I was born in the “old” facility in 1975. My father was born there in 1952. It was built in 1930 and replaced by the “new” facility in 1978. That facility is in deplorable shape and is a shameful reflection of the federal government’s failed priorities and treaty obligations. But there is a bright future thanks to Cherokee Nation.

Guest Opinion. The path forward for rare disease patients and their families historically has been rocky, littered with systemic gaps in education, awareness and care.

Guest Opinion. As both Chairperson of the Lytton Rancheria and Chairman of the Sonoma County Indian Health Project, I carry a dual responsibility—one to uphold our sovereign Tribal nation’s future and another to protect the health and well-being of Native families across Sonoma County. Today, I am compelled to speak out because Congress is on the brink of breaking a promise—one that could have deadly consequences.

Guest Opinion. The name “One Beautiful Bill” might sound harmless, charming, even, but for Indian Country, its passage would be nothing short of a policy earthquake. Behind the rhetoric of fiscal responsibility and government streamlining lies a sweeping assault on the foundational programs that uphold tribal sovereignty, self-determination, and the bare minimum of equitable federal support that Native Nations have fought to establish over generations.

The U.S. Supreme Court is asked to review federal legal questions when they are in conflict between federal circuit courts, or it is an issue that is important. So you cannot simply appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, rather you ask them if they will review a legal issue for an opinion with a petition for a writ of certiorari.

Guest Opinion. For nearly half a century, the Talking Leaves Job Corps Center has stood as a beacon of opportunity within the Cherokee Nation. Nationally, the program has operated for six decades as a career lifeline for countless youth, including many who faced housing insecurity before joining the program. When traditional education and career pathways failed these young people, Job Corps has been there to open a better future.
