Joe Garcia: “I think at least on this side of the aisle we support trying to reduce the human impacts on global warming.”

Native Americans have been handled, yeah, very badly in this country, treated very badly since 1607.

With too few Federal appropriations, Tribes are falling behind the rest of the Nation, and transportation barriers hinder economic growth.

I ask this committee to empower Tribal Government in the next reauthorization measure by giving Tribes the resources they need.

I look forward to working with the members of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee to ensure that Federal transportation policies...honor the Nation's treaty and trust responsibilities to Tribes.
