Lawmakers urge DOJ to restore Not Invisible Act Commission report
Thirteen Democratic members of Congress are urging the U.S. Department of Justice to reinstate the Not Invisible Act Commission report, which was removed from the department’s website following a February 2025 executive order, according to Native News Online. “Not One More,” the 212-page report, outlined findings and recommendations to address the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Peoples crisis and included testimony from more than 260 individuals, including survivors and family members.
In a letter to the DOJ, lawmakers led by Rep. Sharice Davids of Kansas and Rep. Gwen Moore of Wisconsin said the report’s removal undermines efforts to address violence against Indigenous people. They emphasized that the commission’s work does not conflict with the executive order and called for immediate public access to the report, which they described as a vital resource for identifying patterns, improving response and guiding policy.
