Read the original

What it does

The bill's title names recognition and compensation for unrecognized Southeast Alaska Native communities, so Alaska Native villages and organizations in Southeast Alaska should track it. Its latest recorded action is placement on the Senate Legislative Calendar under General Orders as Calendar No. 639, and no program, funding amount, or effective date is attached to that action.

Why it matters for tribal funding

Directly tribal. The document is about tribes, tribal programs or Native organizations specifically.

Who it covers: Alaska Native villages.

What to do next

  1. Monitor Senate floor action on Calendar No. 639 for the bill's next step.
