NCAI Webinar on Sequestration

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.
