I think this bill is good because it helps bring attention to a really important issue. Missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls need to be remembered and honored. But I'm not sure how this bill will actually help them. Will it lead to more resources for their families? Will it help prevent more women and girls from going missing or being murdered? I hope so. #awareness #justice #support
