"Repatriation, and returning their remains with the respect and dignity that should be afforded, absolutely."

"It is time, it is past time, that this Committee exercises its oversight role to ensure that the tools Congress has given Federal agencies under the law are being used to safeguard tribal communities ..."

"Now it still means that your tribes can continue the efforts, the non-profits can contribute the efforts for further repatriation."
