Now that Trump is the official presidential nominee Republicans are floating ideas for critical leadership positions.
During an interview, Colorado Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (R) floated herself as a potential candidate for U.S. Secretary of the Interior.
Native Voice One, a radio network that says it serves to bring Native voices to the world, spoke to Boebert on the third day of the Republican National Convention (RNC) in Milwaukee.
While Native Voice One was holding a live show from inside the RNC, Boebert walked by the hosts. She was asked who she thought should be the interior secretary under the Trump administration.
“I think Lauren Boebert needs to be the secretary of interior,” she said, followed by a laugh. “President Trump, I would like to be secretary of interior.”
Boebert went on to express her feelings on the position.
“I think this is actually one of the most important agencies within the federal government. Public lands are something that are very dear to me and I’ve spent a lot of time on our tribal lands with our chairman and our councilmembers with the Mountain Utes and the Southern Utes,” said Boebert.
The Department of the Interior is responsible for the management and conservation of federal lands and natural resources.
