Rep. Haaland is a member of the Laguna Pueblo tribe and a 35th generation New Mexican, representing the 1st congressional district of New Mexico. The congresswoman became one of the first Native-American women to be elected to Congress in 2018 alongside Rep. Sharice Davids (KS-D). However, that wasn't her first-time making history. In 2014 Rep. Haaland was elected to lead the state Democratic Party, becoming the first Native-American woman to lead a state party. Rep.

Sylvia Mendez, Felicitas and Gonzalo Mendez’s daughter, later went on to earn the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2011 for her participation in the case and activism.  
“When we all decided to fight, it was . . . for all the children.” - Felicitas Gonzalo
