The Big Beautiful Bill Is Headed to the House of Representatives for a final vote. Call your representatives and make your voice heard NOW to stop it! The bill will negatively impact on Native students and higher education institutions.
As Congress runs their marathon to the vote, our allies can run our own marathon. We need you to help win our race by making consistent phone calls, writing emails, and commenting on lawmakers’ social media posts in the House and Senate alike to ask them to vote “No” to a bill that can only be described as a wrecking ball.
On behalf of American Indian students, of which more than 75% rely upon Pell Grants for Funding, we thank you for your ongoing work to engage with your elected officials regarding Pell Grants. As a result of your letters and calls, there has been significant progress...
The American Indian College Fund joins the National College Access Network to urge higher education allies to oppose massive cuts to the Pell Grant program that will fund tax cuts for the wealthy and increase our national debt.
We are learning when the U.S. government entered into trust and treaty relationships with Indians Tribes as sovereign nations, the federal government instead used much of the money held in trust for Native people to forcibly relocate their children to boarding schools.
