Primary federal land management laws were enacted more than 50 years ago, with little thought or acknowledgment of the cultural and legal connections of Tribes to these lands. The Advancing Tribal Parity on Public Land Act and the Tribal Cultural Areas Protection Act seek to change that exclusionary pattern.

 These two pieces of landmark legislation would advance the Tribal management of public lands and improve the protection of sacred and cultural sites.

 A hearing on these pieces of legislation is being held at 10am ET / 7am PT on September 14th. 

 Join Native Organizers Alliance (NOA) for a live streaming of the hearing in support of the passing of these bills and live commentary on the impact they’ll have on Indian Country.
