On Saturday, Niagara Rockbridge was crowned as the 69th Miss Navajo Nation. Large in-person gatherings in the Navajo Nation are currently prohibited due to the ongoing pandemic, so the event was streamed live online. As Miss Navajo Nation, Rockbridge will speak as a leader, teacher, and counselor. Plus, a report on what Estonia has to do with uranium processing in San Juan County. And, state officials say they need millions more federal dollars for water infrastructure issues.
