NOTE Confidence: 0.9576407

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.965
Yeah, well for hours, survivors,

NOTE Confidence: 0.9576407

00:00:01.965 --> 00:00:03.930
families and community members have

NOTE Confidence: 0.9576407

00:00:03.989 --> 00:00:05.604
been sharing their own personal

NOTE Confidence: 0.9576407

00:00:05.604 --> 00:00:07.920
stories of trauma and of resilience.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9576407

00:00:07.920 --> 00:00:09.740
Some said they'll be watching

NOTE Confidence: 0.9576407

00:00:09.740 --> 00:00:11.560
this task force really closely,

NOTE Confidence: 0.9576407

00:00:11.560 --> 00:00:13.380
hoping that all of this

NOTE Confidence: 0.9576407

00:00:13.380 --> 00:00:15.200
analysis will lead to action.

NOTE Confidence: 0.6602933

00:00:15.970 --> 00:00:19.930
This kind of trauma impacts.

NOTE Confidence: 0.6602933

00:00:19.930 --> 00:00:22.438
How strong and emotional remarks today

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:25.158
during the first meeting of the

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:25.158 --> 00:00:27.625
state's new missing and murdered

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:27.625 --> 00:00:31.015
indigenous women and People Task force.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:31.020 --> 00:00:32.190
Before the Community,

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:32.190 --> 00:00:34.275
Washington lawmakers launched the team

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:34.275 --> 00:00:36.797
to coordinate a statewide response to

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:36.797 --> 00:00:38.285
the disproportionately high number

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:38.285 --> 00:00:40.561
of indigenous people who go missing

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:40.561 --> 00:00:42.715
or killed or face domestic violence.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:42.720 --> 00:00:45.840
The task force is meant to look at

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:47.470
systemic causes, provide recommendations,

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:47.470 --> 00:00:50.020
and review their process for collecting

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:50.020 --> 00:00:52.079
and using data on these cases.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:52.080 --> 00:00:54.810
But the issue itself is nothing new,

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:54.810 --> 00:00:57.150
with many reports full of statistics,

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:57.150 --> 00:00:58.320
families, mourning, loss,

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:58.320 --> 00:00:59.880
or searching for answers,

NOTE Confidence: 0.9430671

00:00:59.880 --> 00:01:00.660
it just

NOTE Confidence: 0.9590228

00:01:00.660 --> 00:01:03.979
be nice to. Have her back

NOTE Confidence: 0.9530261

00:01:03.980 --> 00:01:05.810
and advocates who've taken action

NOTE Confidence: 0.9530261

00:01:05.810 --> 00:01:07.640
this new development will put

NOTE Confidence: 0.9530261

00:01:07.701 --> 00:01:09.356
representatives from across the state

NOTE Confidence: 0.9530261

00:01:09.356 --> 00:01:12.120
in the same room to take action today,

NOTE Confidence: 0.9530261

00:01:12.120 --> 00:01:14.493
speakers said they want to make sure

NOTE Confidence: 0.9530261

00:01:14.493 --> 00:01:16.730
the stories they share have impact.

NOTE Confidence: 0.82533896

00:01:18.230 --> 00:01:19.540
On a piece of paper.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8710458

00:01:21.730 --> 00:01:24.280
But not this week, and they want

NOTE Confidence: 0.8710458

00:01:24.280 --> 00:01:26.830
more than talk. It's more than a

NOTE Confidence: 0.716061890909091

00:01:26.830 --> 00:01:29.950
hashtag. We're real people Rover

NOTE Confidence: 0.716061890909091

00:01:29.950 --> 00:01:33.070
Munity members and those 360

NOTE Confidence: 0.716061890909091

00:01:33.178 --> 00:01:37.710
children. We need action now.

NOTE Confidence: 0.94012856

00:01:37.710 --> 00:01:39.125
And while today was really

NOTE Confidence: 0.94012856

00:01:39.125 --> 00:01:40.257
focused on listening tomorrow,

NOTE Confidence: 0.94012856

00:01:40.260 --> 00:01:42.444
they're going to focus more on some of

NOTE Confidence: 0.94012856

00:01:42.444 --> 00:01:44.499
the actual action of this task force.

NOTE Confidence: 0.94012856

00:01:44.500 --> 00:01:46.257
They're going to be doing things like

NOTE Confidence: 0.94012856

00:01:46.257 --> 00:01:48.460
hearing from a Yakima Nation Tribal Council.

NOTE Confidence: 0.94012856

00:01:48.460 --> 00:01:50.266
They're also going to get trained

NOTE Confidence: 0.94012856

00:01:50.266 --> 00:01:52.113
on public records and set goals

NOTE Confidence: 0.94012856

00:01:52.113 --> 00:01:53.853
for how to actually achieve the

NOTE Confidence: 0.94012856

00:01:53.853 --> 00:01:55.483
work that's laid out for them.
