"Senator Akaka, you and Representative Cole got it right when you said in this oped piece here that the Carcieri fix is a no-cost way to build Tribal economies."

"Thank you and your staff for all that you do to support the mental needs of veterans."

"Enacting stronger protections so whistle blowers can come forward without fear of retaliation is one of my top priorities."
