Byron Dorgan: “It is well documented that Indian children are far over represented in foster homes, which is another cultural issue.”

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.

The agency promised changes, but the situation has only disintegrated since.
