Biden Signs Order to Ease Flow of Funds for Native Tribes.

President Joe Biden has signed an executive order aimed at simplifying the process for indigenous communities in the US to access federal funding. The order seeks to support Native-owned businesses and tribal economies by reducing bureaucratic hurdles and inefficiencies. It requires US agencies to make federal funding more accessible and equitable for tribes, and encourages partnerships between tribes and the government to administer programs and services. The order also establishes a "one-stop-shop" database called the Tribal Access to Capital Clearinghouse, which will provide information on federal funding opportunities for tribes and native businesses. The administration is committed to addressing the needs of indigenous communities and has allocated significant funding through various acts. [Extracted from the article]
