Native American Secretary of the Interior? – today – 20-1

Blood

The US native Deb Haaland is apparently set to become Interior Minister under the elected President Joe Biden – and thus the first woman minister of Indian descent in US history. The Washington Post and the New York Times reported that Biden had chosen the 60-year-old MP for the Cabinet post. According to media reports, the Democrat has also chosen a new head of the EPA environmental protection agency. Haaland comes from the southern state of New Mexico and belongs to the Pueblo of Laguna tribe. She and her fellow party member Sharice Davids were the first indigenous people in history to be elected to the US House of Representatives in 2018. There, Haaland campaigned, among other things, to improve the living conditions of indigenous people.

“It would be an honor …”

The 60-year-old is now to move to the head of the Interior Ministry, which is responsible for the administration of federally owned land and natural resources and is therefore not comparable to the German Interior Ministry. Indian reservations also fall under the jurisdiction. Your nomination would have to be confirmed by the Senate. “It would be an honor to advance the climate agenda of Biden and (future Vice President Kamala) Harris, repair government relations with the tribes ruined by the Trump administration, and become the first indigenous minister in history to our country serve “, Haaland told the” New York Times “.

A series of premieres

Biden has promised to assemble a cabinet that will represent the diversity of US society and all major populations. In the words of the 78-year-old, who is to be sworn in on January 20, “A cabinet that looks like America.” The elected president has already announced a number of premieres: For example, the former Federal Reserve chief Janet Yellen will be the first woman in US history to become Treasury Secretary, the retired four-star General Lloyd Austin will be the first African American Secretary of Defense and the former presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg will be Minister of Transport and thus first openly homosexual minister in US history. With Xavier Becerra as the nominated Minister of Health and Alejandro Mayorkas as the Minister of Homeland Security, two Latinos are to take on important cabinet positions.

Haaland is now said to be the first native woman to sit in the cabinet. The Ministry of the Interior is, among other things, in charge of granting oil and gas drilling licenses and the administration of national parks.

Focus on environmental and climate protection

Haaland is to play an important role in the environmental and climate protection policy of the future President Biden. Among other things, the Democrat wants to push back the promotion and use of fossil fuels – in stark contrast to the outgoing incumbent Donald Trump, who is an advocate of oil and natural gas and an opponent of alternative energies. Biden has now apparently decided on a new head of the environmental protection agency EPA (Environmental Protection Agency). According to media reports, the current head of the North Carolina State Environmental Protection Agency, Michael Regan, will take over the post. Critics accuse Trump of severely weakening the EPA during his tenure. The Republican, who repeatedly raises doubts about man-made climate change, relaxed numerous environmental regulations during his four-year term in office. Under Trump, the USA also got out of the Paris climate protection agreement of 2015 – a step that Biden wants to reverse immediately after taking office.
