Byron Dorgan: “I think that we have to examine that as a part of the beginning of a very serious problem.”

Senator Byron Dorgan's 68-page Report of 2010 addressing the critical conditions of all the Great Plain's Regional IHS was brought to the attention of McSwain.

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.

The fundamental problem found in the Dorgan report in 2010 and the findings now before the House is IHS, LEADERSHIP was failing then as it is failing now.
