"Minnesota's MMIW Awareness: License Plate Fund to Support Indigenous Relatives"
Minnesota has unveiled a new license plate honoring missing and murdered Indigenous people, requiring a $15.50 fee and a minimum $25 annual contribution to the Gaagige-Mikwendaagoziwag Reward Account. The funds raised will be used to bring awareness to cases, educate the public, and prevent future incidents. The plate features a red handprint symbolizing the silencing of Indigenous people and the violence they've faced throughout history. This initiative aims to spread awareness and honor missing and murdered Indigenous relatives on a daily basis.
