Recent federal actions threaten the well-being of urban Native communities, impacting healthcare access, immigration enforcement, and critical funding for essential programs. Heightened immigration policies put Indigenous people-especially those without traditional documentation-at risk of detention, despite their deep ancestral ties to this land. Additionally, a federal freeze on health agency communications and grant funding creates uncertainty for vital services that many Native people rely on.
