Walter Lamar, President/CEO, Lamar Associates, was contacted by Indian Country Today for comment on the Tribal Law and Order Act. You can "click" on the title for this entry to go directly to the ICT article to read what Walter had to say.
We have already received a number of calls posing important questions. "What effect will this have on CFR Courts?" "What is required of the tribes for reporting?" "What are the logistics for housing prisoners for up to three years and what programming will be available for them?" "Are we going to just warehouse prisoners?" "What does this mean for P.L. 280 states?"
These and many other questions will be answered at the Lamar Associates sponsored "Tribal Law and Order Act Symposium."
October 19 - 20, 2010
Albuquerque, NM
