On Thursday Jan 31, the Navajo Nation Council passed the Healthy Dine? Nation Act of 2013.
This will force a 2 percent sales tax on junk food throughout the reservation.
Lawmakers supported this bill to promote healthy living and they hope this will bring awareness to what they call a diabetes epidemic.
