The hour will be moderated by NCAI Executive Director Jacklyn Johnson, and a question and answer session will follow the speech.
The Address will be carried live on stations across the country (check your local station listings) and on the NV1 live stream (www.nv1.org)
National Congress of the American Indian Joe Garcia (Ohkay Owingeh), President of the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) - the nation's oldest, largest and most representative American Indian and Alaska Native organization -- will deliver the fifth annual "State of Indian Nations" address in Washington, D.C.
The address is planned not only as a response to President Bush's State of the Union address, which will take place on January 23, but also as a forum for relaying to the President, the American public and Indian Nations the general state of America's Indian nations. Themes will include: economic development; trust reform; the protection of American Indian tribal sovereignty; homeland security; and the many other issues currently facing Indian nations.
