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.
I come from a rich culture in the Pueblo country in Ohkay Owingeh, and so I think it is important that I didn't learn all of the things that I knew about social life and culture and language and all of that in an education setting.
Native Americans have been handled, yeah, very badly in this country, treated very badly since 1607.
