BIA marks 175th anniversary amid mixed attention
The Bureau of Indian Affairs planned ceremonies at Interior Department HQ for its 175th anniversary, but the event was delayed a year after the department gave focus to its 150th in 1999. Kevin Gover explains the delay, noting the BIA’s shift toward tribal autonomy in recent decades. Powerball results show no jackpot winner with six numbers in Des Moines, with a $16 million prize up for Saturday. One ticket matched five numbers plus the Powerball in Minnesota, winning $100,000.
