Before and after

Before the order

Tribal programs often used fragmented, short-term and administratively burdensome funding mechanisms despite federal trust and treaty responsibilities.

After the order

Agencies began burden-reduction and funding-flexibility reviews. Later policy changes may redirect executive initiatives, but treaties, statutes, valid awards and consultation duties remain independently controlling.

EO 14236 expressly revoked this order.
