This Week: The Day of Remembrance of Japanese American Incarceration During World War II is marked by the formal designation of the Amache National Historic Site in Colorado; Secretary Haaland travels to Virginia to commemorate Black History Month and host a listening session with leaders from seven Virginia Tribes; Department leaders visit Ohio to announce more than $46 million to clean up abandoned coal mines and boost economic opportunity; more than $50 million from President Biden's Investing in America agenda will plug and remediate orphaned oil and gas wells on federal lands; there's a $10 million investment from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to upgrade and modernize irrigation projects and power utilities serving Tribal communities; leaders from U.S. island territories convene in Washington, D.C. for the annual Interagency Group on Insular Areas; and we head for the tallest trees to find our social media Picture of the Week!
