Mr. Speaker, as someone who represents Tribal communities in Los Angeles County who also seek recognition, it is tough stuff when Tribal Nations are fighting with one another. I hope that we can find a ``both/and'' rather than an ``either/or'' to many of these discussions. I rarely find folks are trying to fake it and pretend that they are Native when they are not. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support the legislation, and I yield back the balance of my time. {time} 1630
