Mr. Chairman, thank you very much.

It is my box of chargers, but actually this is a conversation I had with my mother years ago about the frustration that she had as well...

One of the reasons I am so passionate about this is----

That is encouraging, but nonetheless, as we talk about how technology has evolved and appreciating very much the fact as we talk about the connectivity on the charging component, I think therein lies one of the frustrations associated with…

it is important to work with industries and across countries to develop industry standards that allow for maximum market access

the commitment to research and development and innovation as keys to America's economic success.

I appreciate your attention to this in support of the national labs as well, sir.

One of the things we could do to work together is to alleviate that.

I have learned that more has to be done, and I support the approach that this Subcommittee is taking.

If the Federal Government absolved--if the trust responsibilities were absolved, is that something you would support?

So you would be open, as long as you could streamline the process to make sure that adequate protections were in there for the tribe, for the tribal members, as well?

Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman.
