WASHINGTON, D.C. – A year after New York Indian tribes turned down millions of dollars in U.S. aid, federal officials are trying again to give taxpayer money to Indigenous nations that have no intention of accepting the cash.
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development said last week it would send more than $6 million to eight Native American tribes in New York to help support affordable housing for low-income families.
