Statement of Effect
Participation in Kunhi-Yo (I am healthy) 2022 Conference
Summary
This resolution authorizes two hours paid work time to attend the Kunhi-Yo 2022 Conference.
Submitted by Jo Anne House, Chief Counsel
Date: August 10, 2022
Analysis
The Oneida Nation provides benefits to employees that include personal and vacation time-off
and paid time off such as to vote in elections. The Oneida Personnel Policies and Procedures,
section IV(A)(5), identifies that “Personal Days can be used for any reason so long as the request
is approved by the employee's supervisor at least twenty-four (24) hours in advance” and “an
employee shall notify his/her supervisor one (1) day in advance if he/she will take off one (1) or
two (2) days of vacation.”
Paid work time is authorized as paid time for a specific purpose. An example of a paid work time
is resolution # BC-10-13-10-B, Encouraging Tribal Employees to Participate in Political
Process. This resolution authorizes up to one hour of paid work time to vote with prior approval
from their department manager or supervisor.
The Chief Financial Officer, at the Oneida Business Committee meeting of August 10, 2022
identified that paid work time is a budgeted expense and requires no additional action by the
Oneida Business Committee under the Budget and Finance law, ch. 121.
This resolution authorizes:
• two hours of paid work time to attend the Kunhi-Yo 2022 Conference;
• employees are required to obtain supervisor authorization prior to using this paid work
time;
• supervisors are encouraged to make scheduling arrangements to allow employees to
attend; and
• the two hours of paid work time cannot result in over 40 hours worked in the work week.
This is consistent with similar resolutions authorizing paid work time.
Conclusion
Adoption of the resolution would not conflict with Tribal law.
A good mind. A good heart. A strong fire.

FROM: Lauren Carr, Oneida Nation Member
DATE: August 15, 2022
RE:
Student Relief Fund Extension
I am requesting that the Student Relief Fund deadline of 12/31/22 be extended until 12/31/23 and that
during that year, the Oneida Higher Education program make the necessary changes and budget so the
program can run indefinitely.
As a student in the program, I can attest to how beneficial it has been to me. I tried to use the Higher
Education program in the past, only to be disappointed by the process. The whole experience was so
frustrating to me that I made the decision to not go to school at all. That was over 15 years ago. I have
not attempted to further my education in that time because the Oneida Higher Education program did
not include Certificates. With this program, I am finally able to get the Certificate that I have wanted but
I will not be able to complete my studies by the deadline. Having this program continue would be very
helpful to me and my goals.
I have listened to the past Oneida Business Committee meetings about this topic and Higher Education
has stated they are going to bring forward a new program to help students that are in arrears. While
that’s great, that does not help me so what program will be brought forward and when, to help people
like me? As a student of the Student Relief Fund, my opinion or thoughts have never been requested
about this program so how do they know how to help me? Regardless of what a student desires, the
Higher Education department should be seeking ways to help every Oneida Nation member that is
seeking education. The more educated our members are, the stronger we become as a Nation.
Covid has changed the job market. People have realized they need to continue their education, gain new
skills and/or enhance the skills they have in order to adapt to the new conditions. This program is
helping me to gain new skills so I can become more employable and earn more money to simply survive.
Between the high rent that I pay, based on where I live, and inflation causing my normal expenses to
increase by roughly 40%, I would love the opportunity to finish the Certification I have started.
I do not live on the reservation and I do not have access to discounted gas, free health care, or any of the
other programs offered. Besides the annual GWA, this is the only Oneida Nation program I have access
to, and I am using it to learn new skills so I can provide the basic necessities for my family. I cannot thank
the Nation enough for giving me this opportunity and am only asking that the deadline be extended for 1
more year to give Oneida Higher Education staff the time to budget for this program indefinitely.
Sincerely,
Lauren Carrr

Brackeen v. Haaland Update
73 of 294
Issue
The Supreme Court is considering a case questioning the constitutionality of the Indian Child Welfare
Act (ICWA), Brackeen v. Haaland. The Oneida Nation, the Cherokee Nation, the Quinault Nation, and
the Morongo Band of Mission Indians have intervened in the case to join the U.S. in defending the law.
Issues likely to be addressed by the Court
Anti-Commandeering – States are not being compensated to carry out ICWA in state courts.
Equal Protection – Tribal membership is based on race, not a political affiliation. At worst, The
Supreme Court could find that tribes are not political entities, effectively stripping tribes of our status as
sovereign governments
Current Status
The case will be argued before the Supreme Court of the United States on November 9,
2022. Litigants are refining our final briefs to the Court, due August 12. The Native American Rights
Fund Supreme Court Project is coordinating the amicus briefs, of which there will be a total of 16
submitted, including a Tribal Amicus Brief and a brief that will be submitted by Members of Congress.
Congressional Strategy
Tribes and their advocates in Washington, DC have been working on two fronts: securing support for
the Congressional Amicus; and pursuing legislation that would strengthen our case related to the AntiCommandeering complaints in the litigation.
With respect to the Congressional Amicus, Senate Indian Affairs Committee Chairman Brian Schatz (DHI) has taken the lead securing Congressional support. This brief focuses on not just the
constitutionality of the Indian Child Welfare Act, but also the primacy of Congress to legislate
concerning Indian affairs and carry out the federal government’s duties as trustee of Indian
Tribes. Tribes have been supporting this effort via direct outreach to member offices.
Regarding efforts to address Anti-Commandeering via legislation, the four intervenor tribes, the
National Indian Child Welfare Association and the National Congress of American Indians, have
developed legislative language that would tie state funding for foster care to verified compliance with
ICWA. This group, working with key Congressional offices, has identified a legislative vehicle to carry
this language and we are hopeful the provision will be adopted by Congress before the Court has
rendered a decision.
What MAST Tribes can do to help
1. Sign the Tribal Amicus Brief today by contacting Erin at NARF (dougherty@narf.org)
2. Encourage your members of Congress to sign the Congressional Amicus Brief
3. In the near term (but not just yet!), reach out to members of the House Committee on Ways and
Means and the Senate Finance Committee to advocate for the passage of a bill to reauthorize
state efforts to carry out adoption programs, including provisions that will incentivize states to
fully implement the Indian Child Welfare Act. For MAST Members the following members of
Congress will need to be contacted:
Senate Finance Committee
• Sen. Debbie Stabenow (MI)
• Sen. Todd Young (IN)
House Ways and Means Committee
• Rep. Ron Kind (WI)
• Rep. Gwen Moore (WI)
• Rep. Dan Kildee (MI)

THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR
84 of 294
WASHINGTON
JUL 25 2022
Dear Tribal Leader:
In June 2021, I launched the Federal Indian Boarding School Initiative (Initiative) at the
U.S. Department of the Interior (Department) to highlight the troubled history of Federal Indian
boarding school policies and their legacy for Indigenous people. However, to address the
intergenerational impact of Federal Indian boarding schools and to promote spiritual and emotional
healing in our communities, we must also acknowledge and shed light on the unspoken traumas of the
past.
In May of this year, Assistant Secretary – Indian Affairs Bryan Newland released volume 1 of the
Investigative Report, as called for as part of the Initiative. Volume I of the report lays the groundwork
for the Department’s continued advancement of the Initiative, in coordination with sister agencies.
To build on this work, I launched The Road to Healing, which will serve as a year-long tour across
the country to provide survivors of the Federal Indian boarding school system and their descendants
an opportunity to share experiences. This second stop on this historic tour is Michigan where Assistant
Secretary Newland and I will visit. I invite you, survivors from your community, and the survivors’
families, to join us on the following date and time:
Date
Saturday, August 13, 2022
Time
10 a.m. EST
Location
Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians,
Pellston Public Schools, 172 Park Street,
Pellston, MI 49769
The opportunity to attend and participate in this event will help inform the Federal Government about
subsequent work of the Initiative. It also provides a platform for stories to be heard. A court reporter
will be onsite to transcribe the event. We expect to limit press access to the first hour of the event so
that those who need privacy are afforded an opportunity to participate without the media being present.
The burden of reliving this painful past will be immensely difficult for Indigenous families—including
my own—who carry this trauma. Trauma-informed support will be available onsite. We will also
connect survivors and their families with follow-up support, as requested.
I thank you in advance for your engagement and for encouraging your community to participate. By
acknowledging the past, we will work toward a future we can all embrace. If you have any questions,
please contact Mr. Joaquin Gallegos, Special Assistant for Assistant Secretary – Indian Affairs, at
joaquin_gallegos@ios.doi.gov. Public feedback from Federal Indian boarding school survivors or their
families may be submitted to the Department at roadtohealing@ios.doi.gov.
Sincerely,
Deb Haaland

Summary:
Vice-Chairman Stevens is requesting to attend the Democratic Congressional Campaign
Committee (DCCC) TEAM Program Palm Springs Issues Conference. Annually, the
Nation makes a political contribution to both the DCCC and the RNCC to ensure that
Oneida Nation is invited to events of this nature, to ensure that national tribal issues are
a part of the Democratic and Republicans discussions, when they are discussing the
advancement of issues in to the national elections, in their respective parties. This could
lead to the development of tribal platforms, such as President Biden’s Native American
platform, and also teeing up of legislation that could positively impact Indian Country.
Tribal leaders throughout Indian Country will be attending this event as well. The
Oneida Nation continues to significantly be an advocate for the Midwest, and this is a
good opportunity to ensure that the DCCC continue to recognize Indian Country as a
substantial voting bloc.
