DescThe Native American Rights Fund (NARF) is the oldest and largest nonprofit national Indian rights organization in the country devoting all its efforts to defending and promoting the legal rights of Indian people on issues essential to their tribal sovereignty, their natural resources and their human rights. NARF believes in empowering individuals and communities whose rights, economic self-sufficiency and political participation have been systematically eroded or undermined. At its inception in 1970, NARF believed that the best hope for Indian survival and development rests with the maintenance of the tribe as an institution. The inherent sovereign powers of a tribe to hold land, to govern tribal members and to command the respect of other units of government are essential to an Indian nation concept. Throughout its history, NARF has held fast to this hope and through its work has insured that this concept has become a reality. The Native American Rights Fund (NARF) continues to address its traditional priority areas in accordance with NARF's long-standing program priorities. NARFs priority areas are: 1) Preservation of Tribal Existence; 2) Protection of Tribal Natural Resources; 3) Accountability of Governments to Native Americans; 4) Development of Indian Law & Educating the Public about Indian Rights Issues; and 5) Promotion of Native American Human Rights. Over the course of NARFs existence, a strong legal foundation has been built around NARF's major priority areas. NARF will continue to build on that progress on behalf of Native American people who would otherwise lack access to and representation in the justice system. NARF currently has approximately fifty ongoing cases and/or projects representing tribes, organizations and individuals. The volume and importance of the cases on NARF's docket illustrates the continuing need and demand for NARF's services. NARF Highlights: -Stop President Trumps land grab at the Bears Ears National Monument by filing a suit on behalf of our tribal clients. -Support the NODAPL movement by filing amicus briefs. -Represent the Rosebud Sioux Tribe and the Fort Belknap Indian Community in the evolving Keystone XL issue. -Successfully represent the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians in their groundwater case. -Successfully represent ground water adjudications across the western half of the United States on behalf of tribes. -Track cases of interest to Native Nations at the United States Supreme Court. Work to improve the win/loss record at the United States Supreme Court. -Challenge restrictive North Dakota voting ID laws and develop solutions to voting rights problems in Indian country through our Native American Voting Rights coalition. -Redouble efforts to protect sacred sites on behalf of Native peoples through NARFs Sacred Places Project. -Secure healing and reconciliation among Native American individuals, families, communities and tribes victimized by a century of documented boarding school human rights violations. -Taking on oil and gas leasing in The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, to protect the Porcupine Caribou herd and the Gwich'in Nations that depend on the herd. -Promote and support Native communities in restoring sustainable, traditional dispute resolution practices. -Work for international recognition of indigenous rights and the impact of climate change on indigenous communities and territories. -Expand public education and outreach to tribes and the public. Project Activities: Bears Ears National Monument History and Current Litigation In 2015, five Tribes the Hopi, Ute Tribe, Ute Mountain Ute, Navajo Nation, and Pueblo of Zuni came together to advocate for the protection of Bears Ears because of its deep cultural importance to all of the Tribes. The five tribes led the effort to establish the Bears Ears National Monument, an area still frequently used for cultural and religious purposes by the tribes. Increased looting of the estimated 100,000 plus structures, sites, and objects within every reach of the monument dictated the need for protections in the form of a monument designation. On December 28, 2016, after the better part of a decade of activism, President Obama proclaimed 1.35 million acres as the Bears Ears National Monument pursuant to his authority under the Antiquities Act. The proclamation also included a management plan that empowered tribal leaders to provide guidance and recommendations on care of their ancestral lands; through this strategy, the Bears Ears Commission was created. The designation was the culmination of local activism, coordinated outreach, and collaborative land-use management. On April 26, 2017, President Trump attacked this important designation. Trump signed an executive order directing Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke to conduct a review of the Bears Ears National Monument to determine if it was created without "public outreach and proper coordination." However, the suggestion that the monuments designation lacked outreach and coordination was disingenuous. The Bears Ears National Monument was created after years of advocacy and many public meetings in the region and in Washington, DC. The effort to protect Bears Ears was very long, very public, and very robust. In March of 2017, The Hopi Tribe, Pueblo of Zuni, and the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe officially retained NARF as their legal counsel to defend the Bears Ears National Monument. On August 24, 2017, Zinke submitted to the White House recommendations to shrink several monuments, including Bears Ears. Despite Zinkes claim to be giving the people their voice back, his recommendation to shrink the monuments ignored an outpouring of public support for Bears Ears and other monuments. More than 95% of comments received by the Department of the Interior supported keeping the national monuments, including 65% of comments from Utah residents. It did not matter. The only voices that were heard were those calling for increased development, increased exploitation, and reduced protections for a national treasure. On December 4, 2017, President Trump signed a proclamation slashing the Bears Ears designation by 85%. In response to President Trumps action, the Native American Rights Fund (NARF), representing the Hopi Tribe, Pueblo of Zuni, and Ute Mountain Ute Tribe filed a lawsuit in conjunction with the Navajo Nation and the Ute Tribe to protect Bears Ears against this unlawful land grab. In two separate lawsuits on the issue, Utah Dine Bikeyah, Conservation Lands Foundation Inc., Society of Vertebrate Paleontology, Patagonia Works, Friends of Cedar Mesa, National Trust for Historic Preservation, Archaeology Southwest, The Access Fund, National Resources Defense Council, National Parks Conservation Association, The Wilderness Society, Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance, Grand Canyon Trust, Great old Broads for Wilderness, Western Watersheds Project, Sierra Club, Center for Biological Diversity, Wildearth Guardians, and the Defenders of Wildlife also filed suit. Judge Tanya Chutkan, who sits on the federal District Court for Washington, D.C. has been assigned to the case. In January 2018, the court consolidated the three cases dealing with the Bears Ears Monument into one case and consolidated the two cases addressing Grand Staircase-Escalante into a separate case. In February 2018, the Administration moved to transfer the case to the District of Utah. NARF and our clients strongly resisted this move of venue. On September 24, 2018, the DC District Court denied the governments motion to transfer to Utah so the case will be litigated in the Washington DC venue. The government immediately filed a motion to dismiss the case, and the oppositions were filed with the courts in late November 2018. We do not expect a decision on this until late spring 2019. In the meantime, on the 11th of January 2019, Judge Chutkan granted the Utah Farm Bureau, the State of Utah, San Juan, Garfield, and Kane counties their requests to intervene in favor of President Trumps reduction of Bears Ears. In addition, Judge Chutkan denied two groups, The Uinta Utah Indians as well as the Tabeguache Colorado Indians from joining the lawsuit for many reasons but mostly because neither is a federally recognized tribe. Arctic National Wildlife Refuges (ANWR) Coastal Plain - Near the end of 2017, Congress enacted tax reform and appropriation legislation that contained an add-on provision opening the Arctic National Wildlife Refuges Coastal Plain to oil and gas development. The Refuges Coastal Plain is home to the calving grounds of the Porcupine Caribou herd - one of the largest wild herds in the world - and serves as the source of great cultural importance to the Gwichin Tribes of Alaska, who refer to the area as "Iizhik Gwatsan Gwandaii Goodlit" (The Sacred Place Where Life Begins). An environmental review process is currently underway that will develop a strategy to open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuges Coastal Plain to oil and gasDesc

DescThe National Indian Law Library (NILL) is the only law library in the United States devoted to American Indian law. The library serves both NARF and members of the public. Since it was started as a NARF project in 1972, NILL has collected nearly 9,000 resource materials that relate to federal Indian and tribal law. The Librarys holdings include the largest collection of tribal codes, ordinances and constitutions; legal pleadings from major Indian cases; and often hard to find reports and historical legal information. In addition to making its catalog and extensive collection available to the public, NILL provides free weekly Indian law updates via email to over 7,000 subscribers and answers more than 150 research questions from the public each month. New to the Indian law updates this year is a Tribal Courts opinion bulletin. In addition, the Library has created and maintains a huge web site that provides access to thousands of full-text sources to help the researcher. Most importantly, NILL supports the research needs of NARF so that it can make the best arguments and provide the best representation to its clients. The Access to Tribal Law Project continues to be an invaluable resource for researchers and practitioners in tribal law. In 2018 fiscal year, we updated many of our tribal law research web pages for each of the 567 federally recognized tribes providing access to hard to find tribal law. The updates include adding audio pronunciations for names of each tribe. We have established good relationships with a number of tribes who regularly send us updates to their laws as changes are made and we are working to develop relationships with others who have expressed interest.Desc
