If I may inquire further, has the Senator from West Virginia or have other Senators heard from the President or the White House by what justification would they insert--again, the White House apparently wanted it; that is what the majority leader of the House says--a special provision benefiting one industry in something called homeland security. Has anyone heard an explanation of that?
Questioning the inclusion of a special provision for an industry in homeland security legislation.

I just want to say that I am concerned about the court's decision in Carcieri and the impact it may have on those tribes that were recognized after 1934.
Tribes ceded close to 200 million acres of land during the treaty-making and removal periods prior to 1881.
It is a travesty! Further, it is a problem that will continue to have negative impacts for generations to come.
