Description

Ranking Member Grijalva to Hold Historic and Cultural Preservation Roundtable at Close of Native American Heritage Month

Washington, D.C. – In commemoration of Native American Heritage Month, House Natural Resources Committee Ranking Member Raúl M. Grijalva (D-Ariz.) and other House members will hold a roundtable titled, “Strengthening Historic and Cultural Preservation” on Wednesday, Nov. 29, 2023, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern. 

Historic and cultural preservation is a central part of telling America’s story; the places we choose to protect reflect the country’s values. For generations, however, historically underserved communities, including tribal communities, have been left out of historic preservation efforts. In addition, climate change poses new, ever-increasing threats to our historic and cultural resources. Moving forward, we must ensure that preservation efforts are fully resourced to adequately protect the diverse historic and cultural legacy of all Americans.

Expert panelists at the roundtable will discuss these issues and how Congress can better support and improve historic and cultural preservation.

Wednesday, Nov. 29 at 10:00 a.m. ET
