It says barriers remain for Natives to get the resources. They have to connect to state grid, which often excluded them.
Yes- this is not a perfect piece of legislation by any means, but a step in the right direction. A big thing that I had heard is that even navigating federal paperwork is, well, work. Not all tribes are set up so that they can take on that effort in advance of something that is beneficial for them in the long run. I know there are some non profits that are looking to connect these tribes with resources to get them going to take advantage of these provisions, but it's definitely an imperfect process.
