Dear USET/USET SPF Family,
As you are aware, this week the White House will be hosting its 2022 Tribal Nations Summit (WHTNS) on November 30th and December 1st at the Department of the Interior in Washington, D.C. The WHTNS will feature new Administration announcements and efforts to implement key policy initiatives supporting Tribal communities.
At the link, USET SPF provides a series talking points for Tribal leader use during dialogue with both Administration officials and Members of Congress over the course of the WHTNS and related events. While these talking points do not represent an exhaustive list of organizational priorities, they are some of the most pressing issues as 2022 and the 117th Congress come to a close. In addition, we include suggested questions for the discussion portion of various federal panels.
Additionally, for your information, below are several related events occurring this week in Washington, DC. For the most up-to-date information concerning the Summit and related events, please visit our WHTNS webpage. The Summit can be livestreamed here. Any questions related to the Summit's agenda, logistics, or registration should be directed to the Whites House at: TNS@who.eop.gov
