As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs on December 18, 2013
S. 1352 would reauthorize the Native American and Native Hawaiian Block Grant programs for each of fiscal years 2014 through 2018. In addition, the bill would authorize a new demonstration program to provide rental assistance to Native American veterans who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. CBO estimates that implementing S. 1352 would cost about $2.1 billion over the 2015-2019 period, assuming the appropriation of the necessary amounts.
