Schatz, Murkowski Lead Hearing on Native Priorities for 2023 Farm Bill Reauthorization

Press Release

Date: July 27, 2023
Location: Washington D.C.
Issues: Indigenous Peoples Legislative Branch

"Indigenous farming, ranching, and forestry are deeply rooted in the cultures and ways of life of many Native communities. SCIA's hearing demonstrates the time has come to extend and expand self-determination and self-governance authorities to USDA to showcase the successes of tribal delivery models to build healthy communities. I look forward to working with Chairman Schatz to advance a Tribal Title in the next Farm Bill.
