Do you want us to be in civil war? Because that's what's going to happen.
Everything that we have put in place is just another step forward in progress.
We have a responsibility to support the sovereignty of tribal nations.
I would like to extend sincerest gratitude to Senator Schatz and Senator Murkowski for the opportunity to testify today.
But we know we need to do so much more here. Hunger and poverty in Indian Country are significant reasons why the Farm Bill matters.
I really appreciate that we are here today to talk about the Native priorities within the 2023 Farm Bill.
We hope the same bipartisan support and collaboration will extend throughout the Farm Bill reauthorization process.
This is not that scary; it can be done.
we also support Senator Murkowski's Improving ARCTIC Act and the host of provisions that address food security for Alaska Natives.
It was a really offensive statement by probably somebody who was not very well informed.
