Securing Full Funding for Tribal Health and Education Self-Governance Programs.

This bill aims to stabilize the finances of self-governance programs run by Tribal governments, particularly those related to health and education. The changes ensure that Tribes receive full reimbursement for administrative and operational overhead (Contract Support Costs) when they take over services previously provided by the federal government. This guarantees that essential services for Tribal members can be delivered effectively without budget shortfalls, improving quality of life on reservations.
Key points
Guarantees full reimbursement of administrative costs for Tribes managing federal health and education programs.
Strengthens Tribal self-determination by closing financial gaps in contract support cost funding.
Ensures that services provided by Tribes (e.g., healthcare) are adequately funded, improving quality and accessibility for members.
