Summary
This bill would renew and extend the Native American Housing Assistance and Self-Determination Act of 1996, which is set to expire. **What it does:** The original 1996 law provides federal funding and programs to help Native American tribes, Alaska Native villages, and Native Hawaiian communities build, maintain, and improve housing on their lands. Reauthorization would continue these programs for additional years. **Who it affects:** - Federally recognized tribes and their members - Alaska Native villages and corporations - Native Hawaiian communities - Native Americans living on reservations or in native communities **What would change:** Without reauthorization, federal housing assistance programs for Native communities would end when current authorization expires. Passing this bill would maintain funding streams and continue programs that help address housing shortages and substandard housing conditions in Native communities. The bill is currently being reviewed in committee and has not yet been voted on by the full Senate.
