Interior Sec. Deb Haaland - Honoring Native American History & Gift to Biden - The Daily Show
Sec. Deb Haaland, the first Native American to serve as a cabinet secretary, joins Michael Kosta to discuss her work at the U.S. Department of the Interior. She explains her team’s work in protecting the country’s public lands, as well as preserving the nation’s cultural heritage through projects like an oral histories collection, speaking with survivors of Indian boarding schools, which separated families and forced assimilation. Plus, Sec. Haaland shares the story behind the gift she presented to President Biden at the Tribal Nations Summit and how the department is preparing to receive the Trump administration.
