Requires the Departments of Commerce and the Interior to submit a report within 1 year to Congress on how both departments are including tribes and tribal organizations in management plans, efforts to develop Native American tourism plans, and how the public-private partnership is helping tribes and tribal organizations participate in the tourism industry.
Seeks to ensure that domestic travelers at airports and international travelers arriving at ports of entry are welcomed in a manner that highlights the diversity of the indigenous peoples of the United States.
Requires federal agencies with recreational travel and tourism functions to include Indian tribes and tribal organizations in updated management plans and to develop Native American tourism plans to improve travel and tourism data collection and analysis, increase integration of federal assets and support national tourism goals.
Directs the Departments of Commerce and the Interior to consult with Indian tribes and the Native American community on their inclusion in Federal tourism activities.
Directs the Department of the Interior to fund a public-private partnership through an MOU with a 501(c)(3) non-profit entity dedicated to advancing American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian tourism. The entity will facilitate technical assistance and training, help build sustainable recreational travel and tourism capacity and infrastructure in native communities and help spur economic development that create jobs, provide world-class customer service and visitor experience, increase tourism revenues, and enhance livability standards.
