Legislation sponsor Council Delegate Davis Filfred (Mexican Water, Aneth, Teecnospos, Tółikan, Red Mesa) said the proposed holiday would honor the past 18 Navajo chairmen and presidents, as well as Navajo leaders such as Narbona, Barboncito, Manuelito, and Ganado Mucho, who led the Navajo people prior to the formation of a centralized Navajo government. HEHSC member Council Delegate Amber Kanazbah Crotty (Beclabito, Cove, Gadi’i’áhi/To’Koi, Red Valley, Tooh Haltsooi, Toadlena/Two Grey Hills, Tsé ałnáoz’t’I’í), said she appreciated the sentiment of honoring past leadership, however she said the legislation should recognize all leaders of the Navajo Nation ranging from elected officials to community members that help their respective communities. “If we are going to honor leadership, we need to look at it in the Navajo sense. I think we do need to talk about leadership styles, the teachings, and how the Navajo language provides those opportunities,” said Delegate Crotty, who also questioned the costs associated with an additional paid holiday and requested an assessment from the Navajo Nation Department of Personnel Management and the Office of the Controller.
