Daniel Akaka: “Thank you Mr. Chairman, Ranking Member Burr, and Members of this Committee for your continued support.”

The month of November provides Native peoples opportunity to educate by sharing their history and culture with a larger audience.

That is why I have worked hard during my time in Congress to educate, protect, and empower consumers.

We must also reaffirm and acknowledge the Department of Education's Federal trust responsibility for American Indian and Alaska Native students.

Well, thank you very much for that.
