The 15th Annual Indian Nations and Tribes Legislative Day, hosted by the Arizona Commission of Indian Affairs on January 19 at the Arizona State Capitol, focused on tribes prospering through renewable energy and technology.
To open the Joint Session, members of Ira Hayes Post #84 of the American Legion posted the colors, and Dearhouse performed “Flag Song.” Miss Wheelchair Arizona Erica Sanders led the pledge of allegiance, and Native American flutist and 2003 Grammy Nominee Vince Redhouse (Navajo) shared his talent by performing the national anthem.
