AKWESASNE, NY August 8, 2014— The National Intertribal Tax Alliance (NITA) announces its 16th Annual conference to be held September 24-25, 2014 at the Harrah’s Resort Southern California owned by the Rincon Band of Luiseño Indians. NITA is the foremost Native organization focusing on tribal taxation issues for tribal governments and tribal enterprises. NITA’s annual conferences attract many tribal tax commissioners, attorneys and other professionals interested in obtaining the latest updates on tribal tax issues.

The Rincon Band is pleased that the 16th Annual NITA Conference will be held at the newly-renovated Harrah’s Resort Southern California. Bo Mazzetti, Chairman of the Rincon Band, will deliver the welcoming address.

Headlining this year’s Conference is Keynote Speaker Matthew Fletcher, Professor of Law at Michigan State University College of Law and primary editor of the popular Indian law blog, “Turtle Talk.” (https://turtletalk.wordpress.com) This two-day conference includes general session panels and breakout sessions for more in-depth discussion on many complex tribal tax issues. General panels topics include Litigation and Legislative Updates; Tribal v. State Jurisdiction; BIA Leasing Regulations; IRS Guidance and Federal Compliance Initiatives; and State Tax Issues Relating to Tribal Businesses . Breakout session topics include Tribal Tax Code Implementation; Pipeline/Utility Tax Issues; Tribal Programs and the General Welfare Exclusion Act; Gasoline Tax Issues; and Development of a National Tribal Tax Commission Alliance.

NITA Chairperson Kelly Croman is extremely excited about this year’s conference emphasizing: “this year we have put together an ‘All-Star Cast’ of speakers and presenters for our conference.” “We expect a big turnout at the very popular and newly-renovated Harrah’s Resort and urge everyone who is interested to sign up early.”
