First native American woman runs for Congress | DW Documentary

Deb Haaland is hoping to become the first Native American woman in Congress. She’s running for the Democrats in the state of New Mexico. She wants to change the face of US politics and take a stand against US President Donald Trump.
Deb Haaland thinks that the policies of President Trump’s administration are racist and sexist. She does not believe that they are in the interests of ordinary Americans. She wants to take a stand against them in Congress and be an outspoken voice for women and Native Americans. Though her explicit left-wing views are not uncontroversial within her own Democratic Party, she has good chances of winning the state of New Mexico. A Report by Clare Richardson.
