This rule would remove the 20 percent non-federal contribution requirement for all grant awards under the Native American Programs Act (NAPA). The proposed rule is informed by extensive tribal consultation in which applicants shared experiences that the 20 percent cost share waiver process is extensive and discouragingly burdensome; particularly for tribes that have limited capacity and are otherwise resource constrained. The NPRM will seek to additionally eliminate 20 percent non-federal match which should have a positive impact on tribal communities by increasing access to critical federal programs intended to improve overall health and well-being through the promotion of physical, social, and economic self-sufficiency. This change is also in fulfillment of the Administration’s commitment to uphold the federal government’s trust and treaty obligations to American Indian and Alaska Native tribes and responsive to Executive Order 14192 Unleashing Prosperity Through Deregulation.
