I just think it is not an appropriate thing for us to approve, or to allow a tribe, this one in Oklahoma, to acquire this land and put a casino on what has been a tribal ancestral burial ground. I think it is sacrilegious for that to occur. What we seek by this amendment is very narrow, and that is that this tract will remain a burial ground and that it will not be used for a casino.

The beauty of what this job has been I think under the prior administration and this one is that there are contentious issues that people do not agree upon.
crop insurance, as most of them have alluded to, is going to be really important for a lot of producers out there.
I would continue the policies that have been done in the prior administration in working on these international issues.
