3, 2011, in conjunction with the National Congress of American Indians
Executive Council Winter Session, the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) will host “Native Nations Day” at the FCC headquarters in
Washington, D.C. This day’s events will focus directly on the issues of
Tribal Nations and Native Communities. The all-day event will consist of
two parts. The first is an open Commission meeting in the morning at
which the five FCC Commissioners will meet to consider and vote on
proceedings relating to the provision of communications services in
Indian Country, including a number of issues related to the deployment
of broadband, broadcast, wireless and satellite services for tribal
communities. One of these items will be a Notice of Inquiry (NOI) being
developed by the FCC’s Office of Native Affairs and Policy. The NOI is
intended to get input from tribal leaders on a broad range of
telecommunications issues. The second part of Native Nations Day, held
in the afternoon, will be a listening session at which tribal leaders
have the opportunity to share information and views on communications
topics with FCC senior staff and invited Commissioners.</p><p>What: Native Nations Day at the FCC<br>
