Daniel Akaka: “Thank you very much, Mr. Murley.”

This Country made treaties with the Indian Tribes, just as we did with a diversity of foreign nations.

You have been a great partner in our work to improve the District and have been, what else can I say, a zealous advocate for its residents for 22 years, and I am still counting.

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.

I ask unanimous consent to speak as in morning business. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered. Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act
