In this @BPC_Bipartisan report we address 3 issues to better support AI/AN families: strengthen state & tribal gov relations, serve AI/AN families & tribal members living in urban areas, and use data-driven methods to base tribal & AI/AN federal funding. @lksmith1215 @BarbFabre.
This #Thanksgiving, I want to acknowledge the history of tribal nations, including genocide, forced removals, & intense assimilation efforts. @BPC_Bipartisan offers a new blueprint on how #childcare policy can be designed to strengthen tribal sovereignty.
