A Navajo Nation businesswoman has filed papers to become the first Republican Native American woman member of Congress.

It happens to be the district where I reside in New Mexico, now currently occupied by Ben Ray Lujan, part of New Mexico's version of Tammany Hall of the Lujan family that includes Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham.

According to the Billings Gazette:

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — A northwestern New Mexico woman has announced she is running for an open U.S. House seat in New Mexico and wants to become the first Republican Native American female in Congress. 

Karen Bedonie recently filed papers with the Federal Election Commission to seek the GOP nomination for open U.S. House seat in northern New Mexico.

The Navajo Nation businesswoman promises on her campaign website site to “lift the government burdens off our shoulders.” She also says a robust Second Amendment could address the issue of missing and murdered indigenous women in the U.S.

The district has been dominated by Democrats for decades, but all that may change since the party has been moving further left in recent years. The Indian Reservation system is a glaring example of the failure of socialism.
