Positions

LiberalConservative

Economy & Taxes

Myron Lizer’s campaign centers on economic sovereignty, job creation, business growth, infrastructure, and long-term self-reliance for the Navajo Nation. His public testimony also supports using oil and gas royalties and administration fees to fund government services and regulate development, while diversifying toward renewable energy. This shows an emphasis on economic development and revenue generation, but not a clearly stated general tax-cut or tax-increase agenda.

Healthcare

Supports equitable health care access, quality of care, and Medicaid expansion. Also backed advance appropriations for Indian Health Service funding and emphasized the importance of protecting and strengthening the Indian health system.

Climate & Energy

Myron Lizer has supported diversifying the Navajo Nation’s energy portfolio from carbon-based energy toward renewable energy development and has said this is part of combating climate change while providing clean energy. He has also backed stronger regulation of oil and gas emissions, protection of sacred sites from development, and opposition to uranium mining, while still recognizing the economic value of existing oil and gas activity.
