NCAI WEBINAR | Protecting the Trust Responsibility from Sequester and Budget Cuts
What: Webinar–Strategies for Sharing Sequester Impacts and Protecting Trust and
Treaty Obligations
When: September 4, 2013, 2-3 pm Eastern
NCAI will host a webinar in preparation for Tribal Unity Days on September 11-12 and a Native American Caucus Hill briefing on sequestration scheduled for September 19, 2013. Sequestration and projected further cuts undermine American Indian treaty rights and tribes need the attention and help of Congress to fix the situation. This webinar will share where we are in the budget and appropriations process, strategy for protecting tribal programs, and tips for sharing our stories with decision-makers.
Presenters: Lacey Horn, Treasurer, Cherokee Nation and Amber Ebarb, National
Congress of American Indians
