; (2) lack of on-reservation affordable and safe housing; and (3) lack of public health infrastructure, including access to running water; Whereas, on January 27, 2021, President Biden issued Executive Order 14008 (86 Fed. Reg. 7619; relating to tackling the climate crisis), which provides that it is the policy of the Biden Administration to secure environmental justice and spur economic opportunity for disadvantaged communities that have been historically marginalized and overburdened by pollution and underinvestment in housing, transportation, water and wastewater infrastructure, and health care; Whereas, through the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act ( Public Law 117–58 ; 135 Stat. 429) (referred to in this preamble as IIJA ) and the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 ( Public Law 117–169 ; 136 Stat. 1818) (referred to in this preamble as IRA ), Congress has provided funding for the Indian Health Service, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Bureau of Reclamation to support the construction and repair of Tribal clean water infrastructure, but inadequate resources are available to Tribes to assist them with accessing these construction and repair funding programs, and to support Tribal operation and maintenance of water infrastructure, which is necessary to successfully implement the historic investment in clean water infrastructure; Whereas many Native communities need technical assistance to ensure that the Native communities can— (1) access and take advantage of the new construction funding made available through the IIJA and IRA; (2) develop the managerial, financial, and regulatory framework necessary for a fully functional and self-sustaining utility; and (3) engage appropriate outside support to assist, as needed; Whereas advances in water technology, including treatment, sensors, and innovative pipeline materials, can assist in— (1) accelerating efforts to provide universal access to reliable, clean, and drinkable water for all Native communities
