And now:Ish <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: The National Congress of American Indians http://www.ncai.org/welcome.html (NCAI), founded in 1944, is the oldest, largest and most representative national Indian organization serving the needs of a broad membership of American Indian and Alaska Native governments. Our founding members stressed the need for unity and cooperation among tribal governments and people for the security and protection of treaty and sovereign rights. As the preeminent national Indian organization, NCAI is organized as a representative congress aiming for consensus on national priority issues. NCAI continues to strengthen its foundation and organizational capacity to meet today's challenges.
