Tribal Nations Conference

President Obama welcomed nearly 400 tribal leaders to the White House Nov. 4 in a summit aimed at strengthening relations between the federal government and Indian Country. Obama emphasized his support for Native causes and gave tribal leaders the chance to share their concerns with administration officials. The conference, detailed in this New York Times article, picks up on efforts by President Clinton nearly a decade ago to establish meaningful collaboration between Native nations and the federal government.
