Native Bidaské with Aaron Payment
Join Native News Online Publisher Levi Rickert as he interviews Aaron Payment (Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians), director of government relations at the National Indian Health Board, based in Washington, D.C.
The discussion will center on the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) that was passed by the U.S. Senate on Sunday and is expected to be passed in the U.S. House of Representatives later this week.
One key provision in the legislation is a cap on insulin for senior citizens. This is meaningful to Native American because of the high rates of diabetes in our tribal communities.
Payment will also speak about other aspects that will impact Indian Country regarding health costs.
