**This resolution supports designating May 5, 2025 as the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls.** It asks Americans and organizations to honor documented and undocumented cases and their families, highlights high rates of violence (a 2016 study found 84.3% of American Indian and Alaska Native women experienced some form of violence and homicide is a leading cause of death for younger Indigenous women), and urges the Justice Department’s National Institute of Justice to commission an updated study.
