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? Dated: July 8, 2020.
