The Hopi Code Talkers are being honored in a ceremony Monday.

The Navajo Nation broke ground Monday on a $150 million casino project along Interstate 40 east of Flagstaff.

One of the original 29 Navajo Code Talkers died this week, leaving only one founding member of the elite Marine Corps unit that developed an unbreakable secret code during World War II still alive.

During Indian Nation and Tribes Legislative Day at the Capitol on Tuesday, the Senate Veterans and Military Affairs Committee voted unanimously to endorse a resolution that would formally honor the 10 members of the Hopi Tribe who served as code talkers.
