Cherokee Nation received $1.8 billion through President Biden’s American Relief Act, with $700 million going straight to individual assistance.

The tribe has seen nearly 150,000 people register for the one-time payment of $2,000 since opening enrollment June 1, 2020.

In fact, registration numbers were so high they had to relocate their registration office to Sequoyah High School gymnasium.
