Background
In 2017, the Congress enacted the
Indian Employment Training and
Related Services Consolidation Act of
2017, Public Law 115–93, codified at 25
U.S.C. 3401–3417 (‘‘2017 Act’’). The
2017 update amended and expanded the
Indian Employment and Related
Services Demonstration Act of 1992,
Public Law 102–477 (as amended in
2017, ‘‘PL 477’’) by, in part, identifying
12 Federal agencies that are now subject
to the amended law. Under PL 477,
Tribes may propose to integrate eligible
grant programs from the Departments of
the Interior, Agriculture, Commerce,
Education, Energy, Health & Human
Services, Homeland Security, Housing &
Urban Development, Justice, Labor,
Transportation, and Veterans Affairs,
consolidate and reprogram grant funds
in accordance with a single plan,
budget, and report approved by the
Secretary of the Interior (‘‘477 Plan’’).
As required by the 2017 updates to PL
477, the Department of the Interior
entered into a Memorandum of
Agreement (MOA) among the 12 Federal
agencies to implement PL 477.
