Upholding the Standard Webinar
Wednesday, January 21, 2026 (12:00 PM - 2:00 PM) (EST)
Description
The proposed rollback of the 2001 Roadless Rule raises serious questions about the federal government’s trust responsibility and its commitment to meaningful, government-to-government consultation with Tribal Nations. Roadless areas often overlap with treaty-reserved hunting, fishing, and gathering areas, sacred sites, and other culturally significant landscapes. When consultation obligations are not met, Tribal governments need clear tools to defend their lands, waters, cultures, treaty rights, and sovereign status within the rulemaking process. This webinar brings together Tribal leaders, legal experts, and Native advocates to provide practical guidance on understanding federal consultation requirements, documenting agency engagement, building a strong administrative record, and identifying advocacy pathways when consultation falls short. The discussion will center Tribal leadership, treaty-reserved rights, and Indigenous Knowledge in the context of the current Roadless Rule process.
