Call for Public Comments:
In addition to the testimony collected
on Friday, July 17, 2020 via virtual
briefing, the Commission welcomes the
submission of material for consideration
as we prepare our report. Please submit
such information no later than Friday,
July 24, 2020, to BrokenPromises@
usccr.gov or OCRE/Public Comments,
U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, 1331
Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Suite 1150,
Washington, DC 20425. Please address
the following questions:
1. Broken Promises found that Native
Americans experience distinct health
disparities as compared to other
Americans which are compounded by
Native American healthcare programs
being chronically underfunded. How
has the outbreak of COVID–19 impacted
these health disparities?
2. Broken Promises found that there is
a severe lack of affordable housing and
adequate physical infrastructure in
Indian Country. Due to a lack of federal
investment in affordable housing and
infrastructure such as roads, water,
sewer, and electricity, Native Americans
often find themselves living in
overcrowded housing without basic
utilities and infrastructure. What have
been the consequences of these
disparities in housing conditions and
access to infrastructure during the
outbreak of COVID–19?
3. Broken Promises found that
telecommunications infrastructure,
especially wireless and broadband
internet services, is often inaccessible to
many Native Americans in Indian
Country. These services are necessary to
keep the community connected to
telehealth services, remote education,
economic development, and public
safety. Has this lack of
telecommunications created additional
barriers for Native Americans in coping
with and reacting to the pandemic?
4. Have the congressional responses to
the pandemic—especially the passage of
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:28 Jul 09, 2020
Jkt 250001
the CARES Act and other stimulus
packages—done enough to help Native
people with the challenges posed by
COVID–19?
5. Has the Executive Branch’s
responses to the pandemic—including
its statutory interpretation and
administrative implementation of laws
passed by Congress—done enough to
help Native peoples cope with the
challenges passed by Congress?
6. What recommendations should the
Commission make to Congress and the
federal government to ensure that
Native American communities can
address the coronavirus pandemic?
