WASHINGTON, DC (2006-09-28) Legislation to help preserve Native
languages was approved last night by the U.S. House of Representatives.
The bill would make several amendments to the Native American Languages
Act. It would require the Department of Education to provide grants or
enter into contracts with Native educational organizations.
