2009 Presidential Memorandum on Tribal Consultation
In a recent memorandum, President Obama declared his commitment to fulfilling the consultation requirements of Executive Order 13175, a directive originally issued by President Clinton on November 6, 2000. Executive Order 13175 calls for regular, meaningful consultation and collaboration with Tribal officials in the development of Federal policy. President Obama supports implementation of this policy and has called on federal agencies to submit their detailed plans for implementation within 90 days from the issuance of his memorandum.
