Short Abstract:

We would like to express our concern over the opposition to fund and preserve the Urban Indian Health Programs across the country. I understand that a series of rumors based on pieces of misinformation have been circulating in Congress. Such rumors are devastating to the existence of Urban Indian Health Programs, which would translate into the elimination of services for all Native Americans in the urban settings they serve. For this reason, we would like to restate our support of Urban Indian Health Programs and Title V of S.1200, the Indian Health Care Improvement Act (IHCIA).
