SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and
the subsequent introduction of weapons grade anthrax into the
United States Postal System and Congressional office buildings
in Washington, D.C., the President and the Congress have worked
closely to respond to the need to rebuild and strengthen the
nation's public health, national security, and emergency
response systems.
(2) Based on Article I, section 8 of the United States
Constitution, treaties, Federal statutes, and court decisions,
the United States has a unique historical and legal
relationship with American Indian and Alaska Native people,
which serves as the basis for the Federal Government's trust
responsibility and obligations. There are currently 558
federally-recognized Indian tribes in the United States, with
some 40 percent of Indian tribes located in the State of
Alaska. Indian tribes have principle responsibility for lands
and people within their jurisdiction.
(3) Despite the government-to-government relationship
between Indian tribes and the United States, the United States
has failed to include and consult with Indian tribes with
regard to homeland security prevention, protection, and
response activities planning. Moreover, there are no specific
provisions for the Bureau of Indian Affairs or the Indian
Health Service to participate in homeland security programs and
funding.
(4) Throughout many areas of the United States, facilities
operated, and services, activities and government functions
carried out, by Indian tribes, the Bureau of Indian Affairs and
the Indian Health Service are the only sources available to
provide emergency health services, disaster response, and law
enforcement to the tribal and non-tribal community, thus
serving the role as ''first responders'' in the event of a
terrorist attack.
(5) To provide for the public health and safety on tribal
lands and in the surrounding communities, it is imperative to
establish tribal participation in homeland security
initiatives. Indian tribes must be included in the national
strategy for homeland security and receive an appropriate share
of related funding.
(6) The treatment of Indian tribes as State governments, as
appropriate, for developing funding methodologies, planning,
consultation, coordination, and for eligibility for grant
monies will ensure Indian tribes are adequately prepared to
respond to Homeland Security threats.
(7) Indian tribes shall be treated as State, as
appropriate, for purposes of planning, consultation,
coordination, eligibility for grant monies and other purposes
to improve the United States capacity to prepare, prevent and
respond to terrorist activities.
(b) Purposes.--The purposes of this Act are as follows:
(1) To establish within the Department of Homeland Security
an office known as the Office of Tribal Government Homeland
Security.
(2) To authorize the Secretary of Homeland Security to
appoint, in consultation with Indian tribes, a Director of
Tribal Government Homeland Security.
(3) To provide for more effective management of, and
accountability for the proper discharge of, the Secretary's
trust responsibility to Indian tribes and individual American
Indians and Alaska Natives by establishing in the Department of
Homeland Security an Office of Tribal Government Homeland
Security.
(4) To integrate and coordinate the efforts of the
Department of Homeland Security and Indian tribes to prepare
for, prevent, protect against, respond to, and recover from
terrorist attacks.
(5) To provide strategic integration of the Homeland
Security activities of Indian tribes that will complement the
operational consolidation of the various directorates within
the Department.
(6) To supplement the capacity of the Indian Health Service
and the Bureau of Indian Affairs to respond to the homeland
security needs of American Indians and Alaska Natives, without
jeopardizing the nonsecurity missions of the Indian Health
Service and the Bureau of Indian Affairs.
(7) To serve as an information clearinghouse and to enhance
the integration and coordination of Indian tribes and in the
activities of the Department of Homeland Security.
(8) To establish an organizational framework within the
Department of Homeland Security through which the Federal
Government, Indian tribes, and State and local governments can
work effectively and collaboratively on public health and
safety, terrorism detection, prevention, response, and
protection of critical infrastructure.
