You can't just walk away sometimes and shift the costs, whether it is a tribe or most of the time if it is a trust land issue, it is a tribe that you shift the cost to.

Through their advocacy, they made a meaningful impact in conserving our natural lands and empowering the next generation of Native American leaders.

I think the conflict resolution that I have seen work from the Udall Foundation early on, the meeting, the collaboration, and work that out.

I think the intent is excellent. I think the mandate codified into law is appropriate and right, but you hate to set up not just the agency but the expectations in Indian Country that now with this mandated timeline, things will move…

Congress established the Udall Foundation in 1992 to honor Morris K. Udall's impact on the nation's environment and his support for rights and self-governance of tribal governments.

I want to thank the witnesses for joining us to testify before the Subcommittee on three important bills impacting Indian Country.

Tonight, I am going to actually have one positive and lots of things that are just terrifying, so let's have some fun with some math. Mr. Speaker, we often start with this board just because it helps everyone sort of visualize what we are…

I thank Mr. Davidson for sponsoring this bill and allowing me to talk. The Biden administration's mortgage rule is the most recent in a long line of upside-down, absolutely crazy policies by this administration. Recently, the Federal…

All right. I am going to go a little faster then. No one cares about percentages of debt to GDP. One of the reasons we do debt to GDP is when we talk trillions, often that is a distorted number because trillions in a time of high…

I thank the gentleman for yielding. I find it fascinating to listen to someone who lives in the Northeast, in a nice enclave protected from the border, stand up and say nothing about this is serious. Tell that to the victims of this…

I have a lot of boards. I am going to try to get through them as fast as possible. I wish there was some way you could set off an alarm if I start speaking too fast because I always feel guilty when I do that. Once again, I have had far…

That is why I support what I call the Buck plan. The Buck plan calls upon Congress, the majority in this case, in every committee to have a subcommittee that is looking at the authorization jurisdiction of that committee and then makes the…

I am in my seventh year. That is the point. If you want to authorize something, like the Judiciary Committee, they should be holding these types of hearings because it is just what you say. The year that I got elected from Arizona, a…

H.R. 4141 could impact tribal sovereignty by including a provision that presumes that a tribe disclaims interest in a project if they do not respond within 45 days of receiving an FCC Form.

There are also other things going on. People don't realize, it is not just the $2 trillion of excess spending that has to be borrowed, how much of the debt has to be refinanced all the time. You actually have, let's say, $26 trillion of…

Congressman Buck, one of the best ways to think about this--the budget window we are working on in functionally about 9 budget years, interest is going to be more than all of defense. That is already baked into the cake.

This unprecedented prosecution is just the latest in the pattern of repeated systemic corruption by this Administration's Department of Justice.

You would authorize a program--like the NDAA, the National Defense Authorization Act. That is an authorizing program. It authorizes us to spend money, and then we go ahead and appropriate to that authorization.
