A news release from the president’s office reported Tuesday the Navajo Nation had zero new COVID-19 cases and no new reported deaths. The math didn’t quite add up, however, since subtracting Monday’s case total of 30,467 from Tuesday’s total of 30,470 yields three new cases.

Navajo Technical University regent Gloria Grant said it was like “winning the lottery” when she was asked to sit in on a roundtable of women who were meeting with first lady Dr. Jill Biden.

This new legislation to reopen of the Lake Powell Navajo Tribal Park, Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park, Monument Valley Welcome Center, Little Colorado River Navajo Tribal Park, Four Corners Monument and Tséyi’ Diné Heritage Area, is sponsored by Council Delegate Paul Begay and co-sponsored by Mark Freeland, Nathaniel Brown and Thomas Walker Jr.
