(AP) \u2014 A bill originally meant to help law enforcement investigate cold cases of murdered and missing indigenous women that has floundered in Congress for two years may have the missing ingredients to become law \u2014 money and muscle.<\/p>\n The money comes from an appropriations subcommittee chaired by Alaska Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski, who told The Associated Press that for the first time funding is being directed specifically to murdered and missing indigenous people. The muscle comes from the White House and specifically the Department of Justice, which last week unveiled a plan<\/a> that would investigate issues raised in the bill like data collection practices and federal databases.<\/p>\n It adds up to a strong outlook for Savanna\u2019s Act, which was originally introduced in 2017 by Murkowski, Democratic Nevada Sen. Catherine Cortez Mastro and former North Dakota Democratic Sen. Heidi Heitkamp. Murkowski and Heitkamp, longtime allies on issues affecting indigenous people, also created the Commission on Native Children, which recently held its first meeting.<\/p>\n \u201cThe great thing about Lisa’s work has been her willingness to not just pass this law but make sure there’s an appropriation for it,\u201d Heitkamp said Friday.<\/p>\n The bill is named for Savanna Greywind, a Native American North Dakota woman who was killed in 2017<\/a> when her baby was cut from her womb. The Senate Committee on Indian Affairs, chaired by North Dakota Republican John Hoeven, earlier this month advanced another version of bill to the full Senate for consideration.<\/p>\n Gloria Allred, an attorney for Greywind\u2019s family, said they are \u201cencouraged by what appears to be the strong efforts of U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski\u2019s commitment to gather support for this bill in order for it to be signed into law one day.\u201d<\/p>\n
