![["Catharine Barrett, President of the National Education Association, provided testimony in support of the Indian Self-Determination and Educational Reform Act of 1973 before the Senate Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs. The NEA supports the bill, which allows for maximum Indian input and control in education programs. They also provided suggestions for funding formulas and additional support for Alaska. The NEA estimates that the cost for the first year would be around $42 million."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_33_15_0000-Indian%20Self-determination,%201953/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_15_0005_thumbnail.jpg "Testimony in Support of the Indian Self-Determination and Educational Reform Act of 1973 by NEA President Mrs. Catharine Barrett")
![["The proposed Jackson-Fannin substitute amends the existing JOM Act without repealing any part of it. It authorizes $65 million per year for fy75o76 and requires contractors to submit an educational plan to the Secretary. It covers Indian students attending dormitory schools and establishes a local parent committee in schools where the majority of the school board is not Indian. It provides forward funding for school districts, rateable reduction in case of insufficient appropriations, and clarifies Congress's partnership with Title IV of PL 92-318. It also directs the Secretary of the Interior to conduct a study on possible program duplications and includes provisions for hold harmless and private schools."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_33_14_0000-Indian%20Self-determination,%201953/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_14_0011_thumbnail.jpg "Proposed Amendments to the Jackson-Fannin Substitute: Enhancing the JOM Act")
