Biden to sign executive order improving tribal access to federal funds
Quick Glance: Biden to Sign Order for Simplifying Federal Funding for Native Americans
  • President Joe Biden will sign an order during a tribal nations summit to make it easier for Native Americans to access federal funding and have more autonomy in its use.

  • The order creates a central hub for Native American tribes to find and request federal funding, and urges federal agencies to ensure the funds are accessible and fair.

  • The administration also plans to announce over 190 agreements allowing tribes to manage federal lands, waters, and resources, and a new study to better interpret and portray Native American history.

  • New rules simplify requirements for museums and federal agencies to identify items for repatriation.
