John McCain: “I believe that there are grave dangers to the United States inherent in the Crab Rationalization Plan being considered…”

We owe each other our respect as long as our character merits respect.

I especially want to acknowledge the leadership of Senator McCain of Arizona who introduced the Native American Languages Act (NALA) in 1990.

I'm the luckiest guy on earth. I have served America's cause, the cause of our security and the security of our friends, the cause of freedom and equal justice all my adult life.

I have to recognize that it has been this body, this Senate Committee, very important Committee on Indian Affairs that has been helping us.
