Mr. President, as Chairman of the Committee on Indian Affairs, I am sponsoring a resolution, co-sponsored by Senators Barrasso, Inouye, Crapo, Johnson of South Dakota, Murkowski, Cantwell, Tester, Franken, and Udall of New Mexico…
All of us here in this room and the Committee staff, all will have to continue to educate our colleagues here in the Congress to know as much as they can about our indigenous people.
Presidents Johnson and Nixon respectively introduced policies supporting Tribal self-determination.
I would like to reiterate this Administration's commitment to the government-to-government relationship with tribes.
