President Biden makes new commitments to Native Nations
On this last day of Native American Heritage month we bring good news! President Biden plans to make new commitments to Native American nations during the government’s first in-person summit on tribal affairs in six years.
The changes include uniform standards for federal agencies to consult with tribes, a plan to revitalize Native languages and new efforts to strengthen the tribal rights that are outlined in existing treaties with the U.S. government. Biden, a Democrat, is scheduled to address the White House Tribal Nations Summit on Wednesday, the opening day of the two-day summit.
The gathering coincides with National Native American Heritage Month, which is celebrated in November. Leaders and representatives from hundreds of Native American tribes are expected to attend.
