Daniel Akaka: “I think sequestration itself would have a negative impact.”

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

I am proud of the work we have accomplished on this Committee through both legislation, such as the Dodd-Frank and the Credit CARD Acts.

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

I want to say aloha and thank you so much for being here today for the Committee's oversight hearing on Reclaiming Our Image and Identity for the Next Seven Generations.
