American Rescue Plan
The Cherokee Nation is receiving $1.8 billion in COVID-19 recovery funds through President Biden’s American Rescue Plan.
Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr. and Deputy Chief Bryan Warner’s proposed spending plan for the funds will provide every Cherokee citizen with a total of $2,000 in direct relief assistance ($1,000 each year for two years) while also bolstering the tribe’s mental health and wellness initiatives, assisting Cherokee-owned small businesses, reinforcing tribal health care services, improving infrastructure, and supporting education, housing, job training and more for Cherokee families.
The American Rescue Plan Act, or ARPA, provides a $20 billion set aside for tribal governments to help turn the tide of the pandemic, address the economic fallout, and build a strong foundation for recovery.
