"A group of grassroots organizations convened in Dec 2025 to discuss concerns related to the #NavajoNation, these concerns have been formulated into position statements to be presented to the Navajo Nation leadership including the Navajo Nation Council and the Office of the President and Vice President. These positions will be presented at the Press Conference to be held in front of the Navajo Nation Council Chambers on January 27, 2026, at 9 am.

- The proposal to reform the Navajo government drafted by the Office of Navajo Government Development has been analyzed and is found to be replete with foundational issues, we are recommending that the proposal not be presented to the Navajo people as a referendum initiative as proposed by the ONGD

- The proposal by the #Trump administration to expedite natural resources #extraction with little or no #environmental review is a critical concern

- The depletion of the #waters of Navajo lands and the continued lost of water rights must be consciously and deliberately addressed by our Navajo Nation leadership

- The uninhibited incursion by the federal Immigration and Custom Enforcement agency on Indian lands and arrest and abuse of #NativeAmerican citizens is greatly concerning

Diné Grassroots Coalition is a coalition comprised of Diné community members concerned about the state of the Navajo Nation."

The corporate enablers of the #ICECrackdown

How #Amazon, AT&T, and #CitizensBank are profiting from the administration’s mass deportation campaign.

Excerpts: "#AmazonWebServices (#AWS) hosts the database, known as Investigative Case Management (#ICM), that ICE uses to target and deport #immigrants. ICM, which was created by #Palantir, 'integrates a vast ecosystem of public and private data to track down immigrants and, in many cases, deport them.' The data includes 'a person’s immigration history, family relationships, personal connections, addresses, phone records, biometric traits, and other information.' Through Palantir, AWS receives millions of dollars annually from the federal government to host ICM. Last April, the Trump administration awarded Palantir a new $30 million contract to create '#ImmigrationOS,' which is 'a new tool to provide [ICE] with enhanced capabilities to support deportation efforts.' ImmigrationOS is likely hosted on AWS, which has a strategic partnership with Palantir."

"Numerous financial institutions, including JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Bank of America, SunTrust, BNP Paribas, and Fifth Third Bancorp, pledged in 2019 to stop working with the #PrivatePrisonIndustry. (#BankOfAmerica and SunTrust have since 'softened their policy statements to allow financing again for detention companies in some circumstances.') But #CitizensFinancialGroup, which operates #CitizensBank, has continued to provide financing for private prison construction. In July 2025, Citizens provided a $450 million revolving credit line to #GEOGroup. Earlier, in March 2025, Citizens underwrote $500 million in bonds for #CoreCivic."

"In September 2024, AT&T inked a 10-year, $147 million contract with ICE’s parent agency, #DHS, to 'provide mission-critical communications services.' The agreement provides ICE and other DHS subdivisions with 'end-to-end voice priority over the AT&T commercial wireless network.' In August, the Trump administration awarded AT&T an $11 million no-bid contract to provide ICE with 'data analytics and support services.' "
