White House Tribal Nations Conference: Video links
Founder & Editor in Chief
I’ve posted the transcripts for the White House Tribal Nations Conference on Nov. 5. This was the landmark meeting with President Obama and more than 400 tribal leaders, the largest White House gathering ever of this nature. If you’re interested in the videos, here they are:
Tribal Nations Conference: Public Safety and Housing Panel
Tribal Nations Conference: Education, Health Care and Labor Panel
Tribal Nations Conference: Economic Development, Natural Resources, Energy, Environment and Agriculture Panel
And, fianlly, the closing remarks from the conference.
Thanks for reading.
